LOCATION
Cybele is situated 420 km east of Johannesburg in the heart of Mpumalanga between White River and Hazyview.
It is 40km from the Phabeni Gate into the Kruger National Park and close to the top Private Game Reserves
in the Sabi Sands.
Cybele is ideally situated for exploring the magnificent highlights of Mpumalanga, including the Mac Mac
Falls, God’s Window, Bourke’s Luck Potholes, the Blyde River Canyon and Pilgrim’s Rest.
CLIMATE
Cybele is situated at 1000 metres or 3000 feet above sea level and so avoids the really intense heat and
humidity that can sometimes be experienced in Mpumalanga during the summer months. For this reason
particularly, it is an ideal stop off point on the way in or out of the game reserves.
CUISINE
The food at Cybele is supervised by internationally experienced chefs and could be described as classic
bistro. Naturally, we use only the best and the freshest of ingredients. No expense is spared in the
preparation of our food, which has been acclaimed on numerous occasions by guests and journalists
from all over the world, as amongst the best on offer in Southern Africa.
WHAT IS THERE TO DO?
The best thing to do at Cybele is to relax. There are superb walks on the 300 acre property which is
down through the forest to the river and along to the waterfall. Many guests use Cybele as a base to
explore Mpumalanga or to venture into the Kruger Park for the day. Various day tours, exciting
helicopter adventures and hot air balloon safaris are also on offer.
Cybele has a large heated main pool for year round swimming as
well as a fully equipped gymnasium and golf, tennis
and squash are available nearby.
