SANI PASS • SOUTHERN DRAKENSBERG • SOUTH AFRICA

Sani Lodge provides a wide range of accommodation  deep in the majestic Southern Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa,bordering directly onto the World Heritage listed uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park. Situated at the foot of the Sani Pass, the Gateway to the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho, Sani Lodge is a peaceful country haven with a  laid back atmosphere, where guests can simply kick off their shoes and wholly unwind. Russell and Simone Suchet started the Lodge in 1992 and are both passionate about the wilderness, mountains and Lesotho. Join Russell for a chat about his book “A Backpacker’s Guide to Lesotho” over a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of our renowned chocolate cake. Relax at “One of the Best Backpackers away from the big towns in South Africa" ( SA Handbook), breathe in pure mountain air, soak up sunshine next to invigorating mountain pools only half an hour hike away, retire to the sunny reading nook, enjoy sundowners on our verandah facing the awesome mountain range bordering onto Lesotho, and in winter, curl up in front of a log fire in the cosy common room.

Sani Lodge is at the start of the famous Giant’s Cup Trail. It is an ideal base for selfguided hikes and guided hiking, viewing Bushman Rock Art, exploring Lesotho from one to six days, horseriding, mountain biking, swimming in mountain rivers and pools, and viewing birds and animals unique to this area.
