Welcome to KatiKati Eco Lodge, nestled amid the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains on the eastern escarpment of Mpumalanga, South Africa. As the name KatiKati suggests, we exist in a unique place, embracing the essence of "in between".
We are ideally situated between the Kruger National Park and the picturesque Panorama Tourism Route, offering you a gateway to discover the region's most captivating wonders. Close enough to town to enjoy all the attractions, activities and amenities offered by city life, but in a quiet valley where the tranquil sounds of nature is all you hear.
As we evolve, we embrace sustainable growth and eco-consciousness. Witness the transformation of our lodge as we diligently work towards constructing and enhancing more eco-friendly units as well as a small events-venue, enveloped by a tranquil garden adorned with indigenous trees. Committed to preserving our environment, we aspire to become entirely self-sufficient and off-the-grid in terms of energy supply and recycling of waste, while restoring nature on the farm.
At KatiKati, our heart is in our people – a warm and accommodating community where individuals of different backgrounds and cultures come together, embracing love, kindness, and unconditional acceptance. Whether you're a local explorer or an international traveler on business or leisure, traveling solo, with family, or in the company of friends, we invite you to find solace and familiarity within our lodgings.
