NATURE AT ITS MOST SPECTACULAR!
Intaba Thulile, “peaceful mountain”, is a 450 hectare private game and cattle farm within the Magaliesburg Nature Conservancy. With its abundant birdlife, and variety of trees, ferns, flowers and grasses, it is a nature lover’s paradise.
Game viewers will not be disappointed, as the farm is home to a variety of buck - gemsbok, nyala, impala, rooihartebees, blesok, eland, waterbuck - as well as zebra, warthog, jackal, ostriches, and a family of gorgeous, graceful giraffe. A leisurely walk in the nature reserve will ensure that you get ‘up close and personal’ with the game.
Intaba Thulile offer a hiking trail to the top of the mountain where you will be awestruck by the views and the peace. Take a picnic and spend the day. The reserve includes 2,5 kilometres of the Magaliesburg mountain range, so you can choose to either relax and gaze upon the unforgettable views; or actively explore the ancient kloofs, the cliffs, the crevices, and the extraordinary rock formations.
Six very well equipped self catering chalets sleep 4 people each in 2 separate bedrooms, one with a Queen size bed and the other with two single beds. The modern bathroom has both bath and shower to suit all tastes. A kitchenette offers a small oven, 2 hot plates, microwave oven, toaster, kettle and all the pots and pans, crockery and cutlery you should require. All linen and towels, both bath and swimming are supplied. To enjoy outdoor living at its best, each chalet has its own patio and braai area. Larger groups may prefer to use the larger braai area at the lapa. Swim in the cool blue pool, hike, cycle or simply relax and enjoy the sounds of the bush and the magnificent mountain views.
The nearest cafe for bread, milk etc is 4k’s away and there is a bottle store 5k’s from us. For fresh meat, vegetables, chemist etc you would need to go into the village of Magaliesburg which is 20k’s from Intaba Thulile.
