Make Africa Your Own at Berchtesgaden Game Ranch

Berchtesgaden Game Ranch is one of the few true hideaways found across South Africa. In this slice of paradise situated in Limpopo, guests have the unique opportunity to experience Africa for what it truly is. It’s a fantastic destination where guests can freely enjoy the landscapes through African ranch and farm life, so it’s no surprise that many past guests have returned. While the experience starts with the luxurious chalets and lodge, it continues through the thrilling outdoor activities. With a name that translates to “garden in the mountain”, experience South Africa like never before at Berchtesgaden Game Ranch.   

Experience the Bush at Your Own Pace at Berchtesgaden Game Ranch

Every year, local and international travellers make their way to Berchtesgaden, and as they stepped onto the property, it became clear they were in a place like no other.  

The experience begins at the heart of their private reserve, where guests will find a range of chalets and safari tents.   

Located close to the activities and amenities, the luxury chalets are a favourite among past guests. Named after the Big 5, each chalet features an en-suite bathroom and is draped in luxurious amenities that ensure every escape to this breathtaking lodge is comfortable. The chalets can sleep up to four guests, making them the perfect choice for couples and families.   

Experience Africa like never before at Berchtesgaden Game Ranch and its luxury safari tents. Here, guests feel like one with the bush. Wake up next to the wild game that roam the plains while enjoying small luxuries such as the en-suite bathroom, daily housekeeping, and coffee stations. For a more self-sustainable accommodation option, the Bush Camp offers stays in caravans and Boswas. 

At Berchtesgaden, every detail of the lodge has been specially designed to provide an authentic African experience. While the accommodation offers a unique setting, it is the lodge’s amenities that enhance and extend this experience for guests. Relax after a long day at the swimming pool or gather around a bonfire at the Boma. The wellness centre allows everyone, young and old, to experience relaxing massage treatments, while the dedicated gymnasium allows visitors to stay in shape during their holiday.   

Outdoor Activities to Enjoy During Your Stay 

In addition to the amenities at Berchtesgaden Game Ranch, the outdoor activities at the ranch and the nearby Lifestyle Farm ensure a fun holiday.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
