Kuname Lodge is a small, unashamedly exclusive, luxury safari lodge set in about 9,000 hectares of pristine African bush, in the Karongwe Private Game Reserve. Only 45 minutes drive from the world-famous Kruger National Park in South Africa.
Bordered by the towering Drakensberg escarpment on the west and set in game-rich, lush, riverine vegetation, the facility offers a variety of breathtaking views, diverse landscapes, and some of the best Big Five game-viewing opportunities in Southern Africa.
Enjoy a cocktail beside the cool, clear waters of the rock pool, or sip a glass of champagne while you unwind and step into a world few have the opportunity to experience. Kuname Lodge will touch you deeply, rejuvenate you, and soothe your soul.
Relax in an environment surrounded by tranquil beauty while taking in the view on the wooden deck or soaking in your private outdoor bath.
Our five luxury, air-conditioned chalets are nestled in the dense African bush with magnificent views of the Kuvenjane River and Drakensberg mountains.
A taste of Africa is all you need to savour the assortment of flavours brought to you by Kuname’s top gourmet chef, ensuring each meal is an unforgettable culinary pleasure.
Traversing over the 9,000 hectares of supreme African bushveld, Kuname Lodge is home to the Big Five (lion, leopard, buffalo, rhino, and elephant), as well as a wealth of other creatures. Open-vehicle game drives are perfect for game viewing.
The magnificent game viewing provides perfect photographic opportunities. Enjoy the view of the Lowveld from a "kopje" surrounded by lush vegetation, a huge variety of trees, and over 365 different bird species. Game drives are conducted with qualified game rangers and Shangaan trackers, who will share their vast experience of the African bush and offer a chance to view cheetah on foot.

South Africa Safari and Garden Route
Leigh-Ann was outstanding and very helpful in putting an itinerary together not just for a Safari but including internal flights and accommodation in Cape Town and all along the Garden Route. Would highly recommend using Safari.com for your South Africa trips especially if it is your first trip.
