Londolozi Pioneer Camp
Londolozi Private Game ReserveLondolozi Pioneer Camp Location
Pioneer
Camp is steeped in history. It is here, right in the heart of the reserve,
where over eighty years ago the Varty ancestors arrived after
three days of hard travel by rail, wagon and foot. In the falling
light they pitched their tents on the banks of the Sand River
where it runs cool and clear over vast granite rocks.
They awoke in an illuminated landscape. Unique, beautiful, peaceful
and remote, this wild and silent wilderness is still the defining
experience at Pioneer Camp. The tents are now just part of the
family mythology, replaced by expansive private suites hidden
deep in a 500-year-old riverine forest of Water Matumis and Ebony
trees. Cresting a gentle rise with elevated views of the Sand
River, massive granite extrusions stand sentinel over this elegant
bushveld camp. With only three suites, Pioneer Camp offers an intimate
experience and is truly a place to indulge the senses. The
intimate guest area at Pioneer Camp provides a unique interactive
experience with the kitchen, sitting and dining areas all being
open plan.
