Introduction to Gorah Elephant Camp
The first private concession in a National Park, is a premier lodge set in the heart of the malaria free, big 5 Addo Elephant National Park, home to the densest elephant population on earth. The Gorah House - restored to its 19th century colonial splendour reflects a noble opulence and delivers meticulous service and attention.
The romantic atmosphere of the 10 spacious and luxurious tented suites recalls the golden era of safari in the early 1900's, yet with the comfort and excellence associated with Africa's finest game lodges.
Dining is by candle light in the elegant dining room, or on its lazy verandas overlooking the waterhole.
The sounds of the bush create a magical air of peace and tranquility, broken only by the splashing of water as the animals arrive to drink under the cover of darkness.
At Gorah Elephant Camp guests can relax in the boma area with its beautiful rock swimming pool and sundrenched decks.
Experience the real African tradition of cooking and eating under the stars.
Whether experiencing the majesty of elephant herds gathering by the waterhole or encounters at matchlessly close range, the Gorah Elephant experience is totally unique. It perfectly compliments your Garden Route adventure.
With arguably the best elephant viewing in the world, ADDO is also the domain of the Cape Buffalo, Black Rhino, numerous antelope species and a wealth of bird life.
Gorah Elephant Camp was also declared a National Monument.
