The Legend Golf Safari Resort
Welcome To The Legend Golf & Safari Resort, Waterberg Lodge
The Legend Golf & Safari Resort consists of an exceptional and unique 18-hole Signature Course, a luxury estate and many other facilities, situated on a Big 5 Game Reserve in the heart of the African bush.

The resort is situated within the Big 5 Entabeni Safari Conservancy in the malaria-free Waterberg Region of the Limpopo Province of South Africa, just a 35 minute flight or a two and a half hour drive on great roads from Johannesburg. This new resort is setting new standards in exclusivity and tranquility and reflects the rich cultural legacy of this ancient part of Africa.
The world class championship course, the Signature Course, with each hole designed by one of the world’s leading golfers, has been ranked “The Best New Course in South Africa” by Golf Digest and provides one of Africa’s most spectacular game and golf experiences. The now world famous Extreme 19th is the world’s longest and highest Par 3, providing every golfer with an unforgettable golfing experience. Accessible only be helicopter, the hole is situated on the top of Hanglip Mountain with a 361 metres shot to the green situated 400 breathtaking metres below the tee. Once the exhilarating helicopter flight to the top of this mystical mountain is completed, the player is treated to the golfing view of all time – miles of African bushveld stretching as far as the eye can see, a vista of epic proportions, and nestling at the foot of the mountain is the green - contoured and shaped like mother Africa herself. There is nothing like it anywhere else on planet golf!!

The Tribute Course, a ten-hole Par-3 course, with each hole being modeled on the best par 3 holes in the world, is designed to be played in approximately two hours when completed. Currently, 8 holes are playable with reduced green fees being applicable until the 9th and 10th holes are completed. This par 3 course provides a relaxing alternative and addition to the championship 18-hole Signature Course.
