Mjejane Game Reserve

Lifestyle Experience

Mjejane Game Reserve represents the last significant tract of undisturbed bush along the southern boundary of the Kruger National Park. At 4000ha this property can be considered completely unique and has the potential to offer a lifestyle experience that will be difficult, if not impossible, to match by other future developments that may take place alongside the Crocodile River in the Onderberg area.

Mjejane adjoins the Crocodile River more or less south of the Biyamiti section of the Kruger National Park. Technically the ecozone representing this area is referred to as Sabie/Crocodile thickets. This specific region is particularly appealing in that the vegetation is characterised by tall woodlands made up of knob-thorn and other acacia species mixed in with trees such as marulas, leadwoods, bushwillow, apple-leafs, silver cluster-leafs and tambotis. Growing along the watercourses and drainage lines are magnificent trees such as the jackalberry, sausage tree and sycamore fig.

Along the length of the property adjoining the Kruger Park, the Crocodile River passes through reedbeds, rocky fast flowing channels and deeper pools. It is home to a high density of hippos and crocodiles. Where the river flows alongside the floodplain, the spotting of game coming to the river to drink is easy.

The Big Five are found throughout this region and may be seen from the game hides that will be developed along the riverfront as well as from the riverfront and game reserve stands. Herds of buffalo and elephant frequent the riverine area and predators such as leopard, lion, hyaena and wild dog have been seen here. Waterbuck and other antelope such as kudu, bushbuck and impala are common. Plains game such as zebra and wildbeest come to the river to drink particularly in the dry months of the year. The area is known for its good rhino sightings.

All major rivers cutting across the Park make excellent birding venues all year through. The Mjejane birdlist will grow through the participation of owners submitting their sightings on and from the property.

Mjejane Game Reserve is first and foremost a place of rest where property owners will find a tranquil retreat in the bush alongside like-minded investors. Being open to the Kruger National Park, Mjejane Game Reserve has the same variety of game that is found in the Biyamiti region - this includes the Big 5. Another area within the reserve has been identified for safe walking and mountain biking.

In addition to the wildlife experience in the reserve itself, Mjejane Game Reserve enjoys a central situation between the Malelane and Crocodile Bridge Gates of the Kruger National Park which makes day and night drives as well as walking safaris in the Park itself a convenient and easily accessible holiday option.

Three excellent golf courses (Malelane Country Club, Leopard Creek in Malelane and Kambaku in Komatipoort) are situated within 15 to 30 minutes from the entrance to Mjejane Game Reserve and a fourth, at Skukuza, is within an easy drive through the Park. Tiger-fishing in the Komati River is within 30 minutes and elephant-back safaris and microlight flights are offered a mere 15 minutes from the reserve.

Stocking up on supplies is very easy as both Malelane and Komatipoort offer a host of shops, medical facilities and the like. Day outings to both Swaziland and Mozambique are within easy striking distance from Mjejane Game Reserve.
