Our luxury self catering accommodation in Kamberg Valley is the perfect place for you to relax, unwind and explore the Midlands Meander and the Southern and Central Drakensberg. ​Our 27-hectare smallholding has two dams and a river running through it. The smaller of the two dams is a feeder to our main dam. The reeds on this dam are home to a multitude of different bird species. Our larger dam is stocked with rainbow trout so guests are welcome to try their luck fly-fishing here. Some bass have also managed to find their way into our dam, but we kindly request guests use fly fishing equipment only, please. Guests can also enjoy exploring the hikes in Kamberg Nature Reserve and Highmoor Nature Reserve, or even taking off on their mountain bikes along many of the MTB trails in the area. Alternatively, we have a wooden deck where guests can simply enjoy a sun-downer whilst taking in the spectacular views of the Drakensberg Mountains. The nearest town is Nottingham Road, 35kms away. This is also where you will find the closest supermarket, so we recommend that you purchase your supplies before arriving at Kamberg Valley Hideaway.
The Mkhomazi Wilderness area covers 54,000 hectares and forms the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains. This Wilderness area is bordered by Giants Castle, in the Central Drakensberg, to the north and Cobham in the Southern Drakensberg, to the south. It is arguably not as well-known as the Central and Northern parts of the Drakensberg Mountains and is therefore the least conventionally ‘touristy’ stretch of the ukhahlamba-drakensbezrg. The Mkhomazi Wilderness area of the Drakensberg, sometimes referred to as “Little Berg”, is characterized by soaring buttresses with peaks reaching over 3000m that dominate the escarpment, deep valleys and high altitude wetlands. The scenery is ruggedly beautiful and is probably the best part of the Drakensberg for spotting wildlife, such as eland, reedbuck and baboons, to name but a few species. The area supports a huge array of rare endemic and endangered plant species and is rich in incredible bird life. The Mkhomazi Wilderness Area incorporates two separate Nature Reserves, Highmoor Nature Reserve and Kamberg Nature Reserve. Both of these reserves have a number of hikes, some of which can be done in a few hours and others which take much longer.
