Enjoy a picnic meal at Karkloof Safari Spa


Say "HELLO" to Karkloof Safari Spa in Kwazulu Natal.

Trumpeter Hornbills.
One of the more unusual bird species that can be found on the property.
They are the closest that guests will come to an "alarm clock"
in this timeless environment.


Aside from eating at either the Spa or the main lodge,
guests to Karkloof Safari Spa can also opt for a picnic meal.
It can form part of a game drive,
where you can see two of the "Big 5" as well as several plains game species.
In keeping with the excellent service that defines this Safari Spa,
guests are able to wash before settling down to a "fine dining"
picnic experience.


A table with a view...
and a blanket, just in case it gets chilly.
No paper plates or plastic cutlery in sight.
A picnic meal served as it should be.
With a proper linen table cloth and restaurant quality
silverware  and flatware.
A "pick-me-up" for a tired soul.


The sound of running water is soothing,
and vastly different from the sounds of the city
that guests are accustomed to.
Take a while, allow your ears and eyes to become attuned
to the natural beauty and splendour that Karkloof Safari Spa
has to offer


Guests would be able to choose what could be on the menu.
This particular picnic spot is great all year round,
but the staff will offer you other options should you wish for different scenery.


Peace and tranquility with a stunning view.
This might be the ideal place to ask that "special" question.


There is every possibility that a Nyala bull
might stop by to have a look at what might be on the menu.
This particular fellow seems to have a rather inquisitive look on his face.

Because of the "timeless" nature of Karkloof Safari Spa,
a picnic lunch like this can be organized to suit
the guests requirements.

Here a mom and baby warthog look on as a guest walks past


Female Nyala...
These antelope are extremely inquisitive and will stop what they are doing
in order to see if guests are perhaps doing something more "exciting"
There are several groups that live close to the Spa.
They can often be spotted from the treatment rooms,
or grazing on the grass roof of the Spa main building.


One of the iconic African animals,
the Zebra...is it black with white stripes?
Or white with black stripes?
They will often stand and watch the passing game drive vehicle,
not feeling threatened, they will "pose" for photographs.


Top of the Big 5 List...
The Cape Buffalo!
This is one of the most dangerous animals in Africa.
Buffalo always look at you as if you owe them money.


The Hippo is responsible for more deaths on the continent
than all of the "Big 5" combined.
That being said, the pod of Hippo in the main dam
are content to enthrall visitors with this type of antic.


Depending on the time of year that you visit Karkloof Safari Spa,
you will be able to spot a variety of youngsters gamboling on the plains.
These are a group of young Wildebeest.


Another icon of the African bushveld...
The White Rhino.
This almost prehistoric looking creature is a firm favourite with guests.
The Rhino at Karkloof Safari Spa can often be found together with the Buffalo.
An unusual combination, but an exciting "spotting".


Because of the "timeless" nature of Karkloof Safari Spa,
meals,a bubble bath can be organized to suit
the guests requirements.
