Talk to us Get In Touch - [Meet our Rangers and Trackers](https://elephantplains.co.za/meet-our-rangers-and-trackers/): My name is Amu, and I grew up in a village called Clare A, just three villages away from the Manyeleti Game Reserve. As a young boy, I spent much of my time looking after our family livestock. Without realizing it at the time, I was already developing tracking skills by identifying and following the tracks of our animals. - [Game Drives and Bush Walks](https://elephantplains.co.za/game-drives-and-bush-walks/): Bordering the Kruger National Park, with no fences dividing them, the Sabi Sand Game Reserve is world-renowned for excellent game viewing. At Elephant Plains Game Lodge, you can be sure of game drives and bush walks that will live up to the Africa of your imagination! Not only will you have an excellent chance of close encounters with the Big 5, but you might even be spoiled with the more elusive wild dog and cheetah sightings. As the lodge is situated on a dry riverbed, the surrounding habitat is favourable for leopards, as these creatures prefer the riverine and denser bush areas. Over time and due to a carefully planned habituation process, some of the animals have become habituated to the game drive vehicles. This enables our guests to view the animals undisturbed, as they go about their daily routine. Keen birdwatchers would also be mesmerized with over 300 bird species to choose from. - [About Us](https://elephantplains.co.za/about-us/): Elephant Plains Game Lodge is situated in the northern part of the world famous Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which forms part of the Greater Kruger National Park.
