Pakamisa Private Game Reserve

From its commanding position a top Pakamisa Mountain in northern KZN, this exclusive lodge specialises in horseback safaris, with panoramic views over the malaria-free 2500 hectare private game reserve, the evergreen Pongola plains far below, and the Lebombo mountains and Swaziland beyond. Architectural inspiration has been drawn from colonial Spain and filled with an eclectic collection of African and European art. Spacious, luxury open-plan suites are extremely well-appointed with sitting areas, minibar, tea and coffee, large balcony with sweeping views, and generous bathrooms with gowns and slippers. Choose a good book from the extensive library and meet new friends around the fireplace or in the cosy Hunters Bar before dinner.

Horse lovers will enjoy unforgettable rides through the reserve, experiencing Africa's wildlife at close quarters. Tailor-made activities include horseback safaris, game drives, bush walks, birding, botanical trails, archery, clay target and pellet gun shooting. Or simply relax at the swimming pool. Big Five game drives, boat cruises and tiger fishing on Jozini Dam can also be arranged. Ideal for travelling between Kruger Park, Swaziland, Durban, and Mozambique.
