Remote seclusion just 2.5 hours from Johannesburg.
Set within the pristine wilderness of Welgevonden Game Reserve, Mhondoro offers a rare sense of seclusion, where vast landscapes and quiet stillness define the experience.

Platbank, Mhondoro's Private Reception
Your safari begins before you ever reach the reserve. At Platbank, Mhondoro's private Reception and Welcome Lounge just outside Welgevonden's gate, you're welcomed with a freshly prepared organic lunch sourced from the on-site Eco-Farm, then settle in on the terrace before your first game drive. The space blends earthy textures with a rustic, high-end feel true to the lodge itself, and is the only private, out-of-reserve reception in Welgevonden.
