Location
Shingalana Walking Safari's are situated with in Sandringham Private Game Reserve which borders the Kruger National Park, we are 30 km from the Orpen gate.

Our Name
Shingalana is the tswana word for little lion, Shingalana was a lion cub that was abadoned by her mother at birth, she was then picked up by the famouse concervationist john Varty. JV raised her as a cub with the idea of returning her back to nature one day, he had to move her to Zambia as he could not release her in one of the local reserves as the humen occupancy was to high and this could have caused a risk for Shingalana and the locals that lived with in the reserves. She was finaly in Zambia but tradgety struck and she was killed by the females of the resident pride of the area. John Varty still continues his work as concervationnist with many success.
