Dawson’s Game and Trout Lodge: Tranquil luxury

Surrounded by African wildnerness Dawson’s Game and Trout Lodge is situated in Mpumalanga where the last remnant of the Great Rift Valley forms the Escarpment, separating the Highveld and Lowveld with their dramatically different climates, flora and fauna.

Dawsons lies at the transition of these two areas, “where the Highveld Springbok meets the Lowveld Impala”. Where dramatic mountains with perennial streams form the Komati River and the backdrop of wide-open grassland teeming with herds of buck indigenous to Southern Africa. A truly peaceful and rejuvenating experience to indulge the senses and soothe the spirit.
