Lepogo Lodges’ Noka Camp, Limpopo

Lepogo Lodges’ Noka Camp offsets the carbon footprint of every visiting guest. The camp, located within the 50 000ha malaria-free Lapalala Wilderness Reserve, has five stilted villas. Perched atop a 30m cliff overlooking the Palala River, the villas offer pure luxury. The camp is off-grid, with energy self-generated by a 250m solar walkway.

The lodge worked with awardwinning Japanese Architect Yuji Yamazaki on Noka Camp. Each villa comes with a heated plunge pool, unique sky bed, sunken bathtub and underfloor heating. Activities offered include daily game drives, water safaris, yoga, spa experiences and tours of the iron-age settlements and bushmen paintings in the cliffs below the lodge. The lodge also offers luxury bush sleep-outs that follow in the footsteps of the forefathers of Lapalala. Visit www.lepogolodges. com/noka-camp
