Info & Description

We are the closest spot (1km) to the Hluhluwe/Imfolozi National Park! For the best 4x4 open vehicle game drives, visit Hluhluwe Backpackers!! We call the Big 5 our neighbours and enjoy a stunning 360 degree view onto the surrounding hills of Zululand and the mountains of the National Park!!

We offer a very warm and homely atmosphere in a unique and peaceful environment. Our main house has 3 comfortable double and 2 x 4-bed dorms with shared bathroom facilities. The kitchen is very well equipped with all cutlery, crockery, utensils, gas stoves, a fridge and freezer and a microwave. If you are not in the mood for cooking, we can spoil you with one of our tasty meals! The lounge/dining and reception areas, the Park Pub (with cold beers and a variety of drinks) large garden area with a big boma/braai (bbq) and outside eating areas, offer you ample space to relax!

Also on offer is a chalet, 3 stationery parked caravans and camping space - all under the shade of Marula and other indigenous trees!

Hluhluwe Backpackers does not just offer tranquility and relaxation, it also offers water - Dave's Still Water. Imagine, a fresh, pure water supply bottled on the premises! The quality is crystal clear and the taste is luxuriously thirst-quenching! Especially in these warm conditions after game drives. Dave's water is so popular, it is being sold in Hluhluwe Town and the Memorial Gate of the National Park.

Try it - you will never get it better, clearer and purer!
