Things to do while staying in Slowezi

Marloth Park is located in the Mpumulanga region, in the north east of South Africa. It is an idyllic retreat, boasting modern facilities to ensure that your holiday is both relaxing and easy!

If you love wildlife, we can guarantee you will have a magical time at Slowezi as there is so much to see literally on your doorstep. And if you are more energetic you will find a whole host of activities within a short drive of your accommodation.

Facilities in Marloth Park

There are two retail areas in the park, only 1.5km from your accommodation. They include mini-supermarkets, laundrettes, off-licence, petrol, curios, swimming pool, bar and restaurants.

Dotted throughout the park are lodges, which provide bars, restaurants and guided safari trips into Kruger National Park and other points of interest in the area.

Slowezi is also only 1km away from the lookout areas, which overlook the Crocodile River, which is a beautiful spot for a sundowner. You can see on to the far banks of the river, which belongs to Kruger.

Further afield

For the more adventurous, here is a taste of what you can do during your stay:

  • Safaris - you can spend a day (or more) driving yourself through Kruger National Park animal watching, or sign up on an organised safari run by the lodges in the park.
  • Golfing - the world famous Leopard Rock Golf Resort is a short drive away, and other high class courses are located within 20 minutes drive at Komatipoort and Malelane.
  • Walking & rambling - the 'wild frontier' is the name given to the hills surrounding the old mining town of Barberton, which has been identified as hosting some of the best walks in South Africa. This area also hosts mountain biking, horse riding, quad biking, para gliding, and 4x4 off roading.
