Elim
Limpopo
- South Africa
Email Shiluvari Lakeside Lodge
enquiries and Reservations: booksa@madbookings.com
Set against a backdrop of Mountains and Forests, Holy Lakes and
sacred ruins, Shiluvari welcomes you to the Heart of Ancient Venda
and promises to restore your natural rhythm.
Shiluvari is situated along the banks of the Albasini Dam, and close
to the bustling little Town of Elim, 23 km’s East of Louis
Trichardt.
This side of the Soutpansberg is both magical and mysterious and
spans from the Western side of the Soutpansberg conservancy down
through the lush green valleys of the sub-tropical Levubu Valley.
Shiluvari is also situated in a birding ‘hotspot’,
and has the unique position of being home to both birds found in
the mountain as well as riverine habitat.
Waterbuck, Kudu, Bushbuck and Duiker are often seen grazing and
browsing in the lodge grounds.

How To Get To Shiluvari Lakeside Lodge
TAKE THE N1 FROM JOHANNESBURG / TSHWANE (PTA) TOWARDS POLOKWANE
/ PIETERSBURG
Follow the Polokwane / Pietersburg signs all the way (stay on
the N1), once you are approaching Polokwane / Pietersburg start following
the signs to Louis Trichardt (still on the N1).
Approximately 100 km later just before reaching the town of Louis Trichardt,
look out for the R578 Giyani turn-off and it will be on your right.
Turn right onto the R578 and carry on for 18.8 km until you reach a 4-way
stop - Elim Hospital. Turn left at this 4-way stop and Shiluvari Lakeside
Lodge is on the left hand side, 5.8 km from the 4-way stop.
Turn left when you see the Shiluvari Sign, you will now turn onto a dirt
road and follow the signs until you reach the car park.
Please be advised that there is an electrified gate which is access into
the Albasini Conservancy. You will need the code to access the property,
which you can get from us beforehand or you can call us en-route….
