Book your flight to the land of plenty!

Book your flight for the extraordinary opportunity to hunt one of Africa’s cunning and dangerous lionesses, where every moment of your 5-day journey is set against the backdrop of Limpopo’s untamed beauty. This experience is about far more than hunting—it’s a chance to dive deep into the wilderness, challenge your abilities, and ignite your adventurous spirit, while testing those abilities against one of Africa’s most fearsome predators.

Your adventure begins the moment you select your arrival airport. Depending on the location of your chosen camp, your host will help you choose either Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International or Polokwane International Airport, ensuring a smooth and effortless start to your African safari.

Limpopo offers a wide variety of hunting opportunities, each with its own unique terrain and atmosphere. In the iconic Musina region, vast open plains and majestic baobab trees create an authentic safari setting. The expansive landscape provides the perfect backdrop for your lion hunting adventure, where every step brings new excitement and discovery.

In contrast, Lephalale (formerly Ellisras) presents a more rugged challenge. The thick bushveld and winding rivers require focus and adaptability, testing your skills in a dynamic, unpredictable environment. The terrain demands you stay sharp, agile, and resourceful, making each day an exhilarating test of patience and precision.

Whether you’re traversing the vast plains of Musina or navigating the dense bushveld of Lephalale, Limpopo’s hunting camps promise an unforgettable experience. From the first light of dawn to the final glow of the African dusk, this is your chance to hunt one of the most majestic, ferocious and cunning of Africa’s creatures in the raw, untamed wilderness.

Dare to hunt the Matriarch

Hunting the huntress in Polokwane is a thrilling and dangerous pursuit that offers the ultimate challenge for any hunter. This isn’t just about tracking an elusive lioness; it’s a test of skill, patience, and precision, where every moment is filled with anticipation. The dense Limpopo bushveld provides the perfect backdrop for this high-stakes adventure, where risk and excitement go hand-in-hand for the perfect lion hunting safari!

Lion hunting in South Africa is an experience like no other, especially when targeting the elusive African cat. As the primary hunters of the pride, lionesses are fast, intelligent, cunning, agile, and very strategic. Tracking them through the thick underbrush and dense terrain is a challenge in itself, as they use their environment to their advantage, blending into the shadows, hiding in the grass and camouflaging themselves seamlessly on the African plains. The danger is ever-present and these powerful creatures will not hesitate to defend themselves if they feel threatened. This hunt requires a hunter to remain alert and focused at all times, bring their A-game to the party or suffer the consequences!

The thrill of Lion hunting safari in Polokwane comes not just from the pursuit, but also from the sheer beauty and danger of the moment when you come face-to-face with the beautiful but dangerous huntress. The adrenaline rush as you close in on your target, and the suspense of waiting for the right shot, is unparalleled. Every step you take brings you closer to a lioness that could turn at any moment!

Trophy lion hunting in South Africa demands impeccable shot placement, as a well-placed shot ensures the quick and humane takedown of this majestic animal. The challenge lies in positioning yourself for that perfect moment, which requires incredible patience, focus, and timing. Successfully hunting of a Lioness is a rewarding and unforgettable dangerous game hunting adventure that tests your limits in one of Africa’s most exciting hunting environments.

Test your skillset. Test your limits. Take the ultimate test and enjoy a trophy lion hunting safari in South Africa.
