Welcome to Limpopo-Lipadi
Welcome to Limpopo-Lipadi, a shareholder-owned wildlife and wilderness Reserve located on the banks of the Limpopo River in the Tuli Block, Botswana.
The Reserve consists of 20,500 hectares of biodiverse landscape, with abundant natural flora and fauna, and includes 14 kilometres of river frontage. Over 300 species of birds and most of the iconic species of Southern African wildlife can be found here, including several endangered and threatened species such as elephant, leopard, southern white rhinoceros, African wild dog and brown hyena.
The co-owners of the Reserve represent a variety of backgrounds and nationalities, all of whom have come together to preserve this unique piece of the African bush. The principal elements of our effort include rewilding land which was formally a cattle farm through habitat restoration, species reintroduction, and a strict no-hunting policy.
Furthermore we understand the importance of involving the local communities in this effort through the creation of employment, as well as through health and education initiatives.
Finally Limpopo-Lipadi offers a unique visitor experience and the chance to establish a lasting connection to the African bush through visiting, investing, or donating.
Our Vision
Conservation & Research
Community
Community is the bedrock upon which Limpopo-Lipadi is built. The Reserve staff is almost entirely made up of Botswana citizens and through the Motse Committee we support local schools and health clinics.
Visit
Enjoy a drink beside the Limpopo River; track African wild dogs or southern white rhino; visit us as an Eco-Supporter; have a bush dinner by firelight; or watch wildlife at a waterhole. Most importantly, enjoy Africa at your own pace. Come and see for yourself, at Limpopo-Lipadi!
Invest

Is This Elephant Left-handed?
Did you know that elephants usually have one tusk that they use more than the other (just as humans have one dominant hand)? This elephant bull seems to be left-handed.
Elephants splashing
Spring and summer days in Botswana can be incredibly hot and what is better during these hot months than taking a mud bath at sunset. It cools the elephants off, protects them from insect bites and serves as sunscreen.
Such luck to witness real-time conservation
Shareholders Guido and Nancy were lucky to witness a few conservation projects during their stay at Limpopo-Lipadi. Read the story of their first adventure, the relocation of some of our lions to other parts of Botswana.
