OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

swimming pool
Swimming Pool

There is a small heated swimming situated between the pub and the deck overlooking the river to cool down on hot summer days and to provide family fun throughout the year.

Picnics at the River

A great idea to enjoy the area is to have a picnic. There are various areas around the lodge for you to enjoy including the island under the oak trees, and on the river bank. Pack your own basket or order a picnic basket from the restaurant.

Fishing

We have 2.5km of rainbow trout inhabited river frontage. The rivers are open from 1st Sept to 31 May annually.  Should the river conditions be unfavorable, there is a dam on our neighbouring farm (4km away) – booking essential. The dam is open for year round fishing enjoyment.  There is free tuition for beginners.  We also have a small bass dam which provides hours of fun for children.  We keep a small selection of flies and lures for sale and rods to hire.

walking & birding

There is a gentle walk along the river looking down onto Thrombosis gorge.  We encourage visitors to add to our check list of over 100 birds.  The more serious hiker can visit the Drakensberg conservation areas nearby where one can do trails of varying degrees of difficulty. There are several smaller nature reserves within the uKhahlamba World Heritage Area- Cobham, Loteni and Vergelegen Reserves. They are administered by KZN Conservation Services.

swimming, boating & tubing

The Lodge is situated at the finish of the Drak Challenge canoe marathon and the start of the Thromi XFest, an extreme sports event.  Canoes, paddles and tubes are available to hire.  Tubing is a favorite summer activity.  Guests are dropped off about 5km upriver and tube back to the lodge.
