If it's wildlife you're seeking, that's exactly what you'll find here at Tshukudu Bush Lodge. Located deep in the heart of the Pilanesberg National Park, Tshukudu is the perfect base from which to enjoy the rich diversity of indigenous flora and fauna of Africa - including the Big Five.

The scenic terrain lies in the transition zone between Kalahari and Lowveld, and both types of vegetation are found here. As a result of the park being on a transition zone there are overlaps in mammals, birds and vegetation. In the Pilanesberg National Park today live most of the animal species of southern Africa these include lions, elephants, white and black rhinos, buffaloes, leopards, zebras, hyenas, giraffes, hippos and crocodiles.

The birdlife diversity is enormous, with over 360 species having been recorded. There is a self-guided trail in the Walking Area at the Manyane Complex in the east, which offers environmental education whilst game viewing and bird watching on foot. Also at Manyane there is a walk-in aviary with over 80 species of indigenous birds. The creation of the Pilanesberg National Park is considered one of the most ambitious project of its kind to be undertaken anywhere in the world.
