Madikwe Game Reserve is one of the newest and the fourth largest game sanctuary in South Africa, located in the scorching Kalahari sandveld and acacia bushveld of the Northwest Province. |

Just 7km south of the Botswana border near Gaborone, and a three and a half hour drive - north of Johannesburg - Madikwe covers 75 000 ha bushveld area - a pristine sanctuary, with comfortable accommodation and an abundance of wildlife. Its gates opened in October 1994, after the largest relocation programme in the country. The programme, known as Operation Phoenix, brought 8500 animals into Madikwe from as far a field as Zimbabwe's Gonarezhou National Park, South Africa's Kwazulu Natal Parks, Kruger and Etosha .
