Overview
Blyde River Canyon Lodge is an idyllic sanctuary which lays in a shallow valley, soaring cliffs on one side and the tranquil flow of the Blyde River on the other. Not only are the water courses of the Blyde River well populated with hippo and crocodiles, the Reserve is home to nyala, impala, wildebeest, zebra, Bushbuck, duiker, steenbuck, Kudu and bushpig.
Nestled between the majestic Drakensberg Mountains and the sparkling clear waters of the Blyde River, Blyde River Canyon Lodge offers local and international travellers a unique bush experience. The Lodge is set in an 85 hectare Botanical Reserve which boasts a wealth of fauna and flora. Blyde River Canyon Lodge is situated along the scenic Panorama Route in the Blyde River Canyon of the Mpumalanga/Limpopo Province.
Easily accessible to a variety of nearby attractions, including Bourke's Luck Potholes, Three Rondawels, God's Window, Pinnacle, Graskop, Pilgrims Rest and various waterfalls, such as Berlin Falls and Lisbon Falls.
The lodge is just a 40-minute drive to the Kruger National Park - Orpen Gate. The unique Blyde River Canyon is considered to be one of the natural wonders of Southern Africa.
