NAMBITI CONSERVANCY
Nambiti Conservancy, just outside Ladysmith in the
Elandslaagte area, is a private game conservancy set on 20
000 acres of malaria-free bushveld in Northern KwaZulu-
Natal. The Conservancy marks the arrival of the Big 5 and
Wonderful 7 in Northern KwaZulu-Natal and is indeed a
boost for tourism.
The Conservancy has incredible biodiversity including
savannah, grasslands, thornveld and acacia trees. The
Sundays River flows through the reserve and has two 40
metre waterfalls with magnificent ravine bush, home to
several rare bird species.
They offer guests a truly unique experience. Apart from
the traditional, open-vehicle safari game drives where the
big five and over thirty other species of game can be
seen, they offer alternative activities such as horse
safaris, walking trails, fishing and tours of the
Battlefields.
The Nambiti Conservancy is situated only 3½ hours
from
Johannesburg and 2½ hours from Durban, making it
the ideal
breakaway destination.
There are currently two exceptionally well appointed stone
and thatch lodges with a new luxury tented safari camp,
Springbok Lodge, scheduled to open on 1 September 2006.

UMZOLOZOLO PRIVATE SAFARI LODGE
Umzolozolo is well positioned overlooking a river valley
with magnificent views across the African bushveld. It is
an exclusive camp for families or small groups of up to
ten. The camp was purposefully kept small so that guests
may enjoy exclusivity and privacy.
Umzolozolo consists of 4 beautiful private units with
private veranda’s and outdoor showers.
ELEPHANT ROCK PRIVATE SAFARI LODGE
Elephant Rock consists of 4 private luxury units, one
being a family unit, superbly positioned overlooking a
waterhole – it offers accommodation for up to 10
people.
Both lodges offer exquisite dining, an intimate bar, a
beautifully decorated guest lounge, swimming pool and Boma
for African flavoured cuisine served under the stars.
WILDLIFE
At Nambiti, you will most likely see more game than you
might in the traditional game reserve regions of Southern
Africa because the sweet bush of the area can support
three times the carrying capacity of the other reserves.
Besides the Big 5 they have over thirty other major
species for your game viewing pleasure such as Blesbok,
Gemsbok, Giraffe, Hippopotamus, Impala, Kudu, Wild dog and
many other.
BATTLEFIELDS
The Elandslaagte area boasts a history that dates back to the late 1800’s, where some of the bloodiest battles in history were fought as Zulus, Boers, and British forces clashed over land and sovereignty. The Battle of Elandslaagte was fought on the Nambiti Conservancy and the original hospital still stands within its boundaries.
