The terrain is mainly open grasslands and bush veld that offers great game viewing opportunities. No more than 3 game drive vehicles are allowed at any game viewing sight to ensure optimal game spotting. A special feature of Madikwe lies in its unique location, a transition zone on the edges of the Kalahari, where a number of rare species occur naturally, and the bush veld. The climate is generally mild to hot, but winter nights can be cold. Over 350 species of birds have been recorded at Madikwe.
