Kiaat Caravan Park

Fans of the outdoors are well served at Kiaat Caravan Park, and not just the ones that like walking with the animals. Within 20 minutes’ drive of the site, you can get out on the Sabie River for rafting and whitewater tubing, soar above the trees at cheetah-level speeds (that’s fast) on a zipline, or get a little competitive on quad bikes or with an afternoon of paintball. If you’d prefer to soak up the stunning scenery at a more leisurely pace, make your way to the spectacularly scenic Blyde River Canyon (a little over half an hour away) for a drive, bike or hike, or get out on the water with a Blyde River Dam boat trip. Get a taste for local culture at Shangana Cultural Village, 15 minutes from the site, where you can poke around the crafts market, take tours (and grab a bite of lunch) and take part in the evening festival hosted by the chief, or explore the Artefunto art gallery to clap eyes on some fab pieces. Wind down your hols by treating yourself to a spa day at Sanbonani Resort, a five-minute stroll away, where there are plenty of massages, facials and treatments to get you to peak bliss just in time for your return to reality.
