Activities & Attractions

Wits End is a stone's throw from the uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park, one of only 7 sites world-wide having been awarded World Heritage status in 3 categories, for archaeology, vegetation and geology.

Wits End’s 10 acre dam is one of the largest in the area and attracts an abundance of bird life. The dam is stocked with Natal yellow fish and rainbow trout so guests can enjoy fly fishing right on their doorstep. Alternately explore the dam and meandering river on one of our canoes.
