North West

Far away from your everyday, busy life, the North West Province offers an escape to the real Africa.

Nature has blessed this province with breathtaking scenic beauty, rolling fields of maize, golden sunflowers and vast plains of African bushveld.

The long daylight hours in "the sun-kissed" North West Province offers the ideal backdrop for enjoying the attractions of the province: fantastic game parks, the Big Five (elephant, rhino, leopard, lion and buffalo) , beautiful golf courses, water sports and sports facilities.

There are two important wildlife reserves in this province, the Pilanesberg National Park and Madikwe Game Reserve, the first lies next to Sun City, a spectacular recreation, entertainment and go park.

Madikwe Game Reserve

In Madikwe, a malaria free reserve measuring 75,000 hectares, you can see the "Big Five" and the second largest population of elephants in South Africa. Visitors can explore ancient cultures and villages, which link this quiet province to its exciting past. The North West Province is a mix of twenty-first century life shrouded in the mystique of ancient Africa.
