Lodges in Addo Game Reserve

The park was proclaimed in 1931, as a safeguard for the last 11 wild elephants roaming the area. It is now home to over 350 elephants and numerous other species. Addo Elephant Park was so successful that it started to become overcrowded, so surrounding land needed to be acquired. With local co-operation, adjacent farms were purchased and the new Greater Addo National Park will soon cover 492 000 hectares. This park will be one of the few places on earth containing the 'Big 7'; elephants, lions, buffaloes, leopards, rhinos, whales and great white sharks!
