aha Lesedi African Lodge and Cultural village is located in the heart of the African bushveld and rocky hills, in the Cradle of Humankind, a World Heritage Site, only 45 minutes’ drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria. An enthralling opportunity to experience the mystical cultures and traditions of the people of Africa, and visit five traditional homesteads, each inhabited by Zulu, Xhosa, Pedi, Basotho and Ndebele tribes who live according to tribal folklore and traditions of their ancestors.

Accommodation is unique, and these traditionally styled rooms, give an insight into rural African lifestyles, while still enjoying all creature comforts. A gastronomic feast of traditional dishes from the far corners of Africa in its three-tiered restaurant, Nyama Choma, which means the Great African Feast, forms part of the cultural experience. Five Conference venues and African team building activities make Lesedi an ideal venue for corporate outings with a difference.

Situated close to the Hartebeespoort dam, activities include game drives, walking trails, guided Anglo-Boer history tours, craft markets, horse-riding, and bird-watching. A scenic cableway ride to the top of Magaliesberg, an aquarium, bird-park and local zoo are in close proximity.
