Emdoneni Lodge is situated on a small game farm, with sand forest vegetation. Nature lovers can enjoy the abundant bird life on the premises or walk with wildlife, which include zebra, wildebeest, impala, nyala, red- and grey duiker.

Emdoneni provides a central, comfortable and affordable base from which to explore the culture, great lakes, game parks or other adventures of Zululand, the options are endless...

Join our experienced guides for an up-close-and-personal tour to our famous Cat Project to learn more about South Africa’s endangered wild cat species. Come and be mesmerized by the beauty of the caracal; enchanted by the playful serval; astonished by the speed and agility of the cheetah; and delighted by the African Wildcat.

Emdoneni Lodge actively welcomes children of all ages.

Children are allocated to a specific ranger who enjoys interacting with younger guests. Drives and activities are tailored to suit children’s interests and attention span. Game drives and walks are designed to ensure that the kid’s safety is taken into account and that they experience activities they might not normally enjoy in the city. Baby sitters and childminders are available (additional cost).

We try not to use modern technology in our activities offered but rather to teach children to love nature and what it has to offer!

We pride ourselves in offering superior service to our guests and the sharing of local knowledge, which enables guests to explore the most of Zululand. Emdoneni is a nature lover’s paradise and offers the visitor a chance to experience Zululand at its’ best… an experience to remember…

Emdoneni Lodge prides itself on actively welcoming children of all ages. So have a look at our Kiddies Programme.
