Our Story

Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve, owned by Louis Kruger and Jack Brotherton, opened in March 1998 on the Ululapa Farm, which has been in the Kruger Family since 1983. Leopard Hills forms part of the western sector of the Sabi Sand Nature Reserve, and offers over 10 000 hectares of traversing which includes access to the perennial Sand River to the north and the Savannah plains to the south.

The lodge was initially built with five luxury suites and in September 2000 another three suites and the library were added. In 2004 the treatment sala and gym were built which completed the lodge. In 2003 Leopard Hills formed a school on the premises, providing the children of managers and staff throughout the Sabi Sand Reserve with the opportunity of an education.

Since its inception, Leopard Hills has prided itself in delivering some of the best game viewing experiences Africa has to offer. Our philosophy is to offer guests the ultimate safari experience in a sustainable way, ensuring the safety and security of wildlife for generations to come.

Duncan and Louise Rodgers, Operations Director and General Manager of Leopard Hills, have dedicated themselves to making every guest’s visit an experience of unsurpassed luxury. With 32 years in the game lodge industry, they believe that Leopard Hills is by far the best camp they have ever had the privilege of being associated with, not only for its location and facilities, but most of all for the amazing staff and owners associated with this establishment.

Leopard Hills’ mission is to offer exceptional hospitality and superb game viewing; while at the same time creating a wonderful atmosphere, where guests become part of ‘the family’.
