Established in 2026, Nyala Ridge Eco Lodge is a luxury eco-lodge nestled in the heart of the Waterberg Biosphere, Limpopo. Surrounded by unspoiled bushveld, breathtaking ridges, and diverse wildlife, our lodge offers guests an authentic African wilderness experience while remaining committed to sustainable tourism and conservation.
The lodge takes its name from the large population of free-roaming nyala that inhabit the property. These elegant antelope are frequently seen grazing through the valleys, browsing beneath the ancient trees, and gathering around natural waterholes, making them one of the area's most iconic wildlife species.
At Nyala Ridge Eco Lodge, we believe that luxury and conservation go hand in hand. Every aspect of the lodge has been designed to minimise our environmental footprint while providing exceptional comfort.
