Umbhaba Eco Lodge is situated on the outskirts Hazyview on the R40, between Hazyview and White River. It is surrounded by natural, indigenous bush including the Umbhaba Tree (Lowveld Chestnut). The lodge is situated among stunning dams and water features, overlooking the Sabie valley. They have some of  the most beautiful sunsets, making it the perfect location for a sundowner after an amazing safari in the Kruger National Park.

Bush Breaks in the Lowveld

Kruger National Park is a South African National Park and one of the largest game reserves in Africa. It covers an area of 20000 km2 (7,550 sq mi) in north eastern South Africa, and extends 362 km (220 mi) from north to south and 67 km (40 mi) from east to west. It became South Africa’s first national park in 1926 and is roughly the size of Belgium.

Our Bush Breaks in the Lowveld day safaris in Kruger Park are normally enjoyed in the game rich area of the Southern part of the park near Skukuza. Here the sightings often include the well known  “Big 5”. Many photo opportunities can be had. Your guide will try his best to provide you with relevant animal and bird information as you travel. The beauty of this type of trip is because you are private, you can decide how long you spend at the major sightings. We do not have any set routes and we go to the areas where animals have been active recently and explore the back roads.

“The Giant and the African Wild Dog”

Soft rain on a summer morning along the S65 we found a pack of 22 African Wild Dogs mulling around a dry riverbed. Lots of interaction and bonding moments between the dogs but then, a grumpy old one tusked Elephant bull decided to voice his opinion and sound of a warning to these dogs
