Directions
Needles Lodge is situated in Marloth Park, a private residential game reserve about a 4,5 hour drive from Johannesburg, on the south eastern border of the Kruger National Park, in Mpumalanga.
Marloth Park is just off the N4 freeway between the towns of Malelane, about 30km or 20 minutes drive away, and Komatipoort, just 20km or 15 minutes drive. There are 2 entrances to the Kruger National Park within a 40 minute drive, namely, the Malelane Gate or the Crocodile Bridge Gate. Directions are available from the Lodge, so please just ask Mike.

As you pass through the center of Malelane, continue on the N4 road for about 29km and then turn LEFT at the clearly marked sign for MARLOTH PARK. Continue on the dirt road for about 5km until you come to the entrance to Marloth Park.
