Location:
 |
Inyati is
a little piece of heaven right here on planet Earth. To the local
Shangaan people it is also the magnificent and powerful
animal......the buffalo.
Situated along the curving banks of the Sand
River, Inyati is a place of delightful contrast...of brilliant, golden
sunshine and cool, shady hideaways. Birdlife is abundant, and a wide
variety of mammal, reptile and insect species are indigenous to the
region.
Daily, the
river gives of itself...generously nourishing the extensive wildlife
and lush vegetation. Soak up the unspoiled beauty.
Leave the frantic
noisy world behind and refresh your spirit. feel tension and worry
disappear as Inyati weaves its spell... Against the backdrop of the
African night can be heard the music of Inyati... the deep, guttural
cough of a Leopard, the throaty chuckle of a Hyaena. This is true Big
Five territory. |
