The official race camping is now at Khotso Lodge & Horse Trails, right at the Trout Hatcheries!
Situated only 500m from the Umzimkulu river, Khotso is the perfect training basecamp in the mountains. Looking out over the jagged peaks of the Southern Drakensberg and onto the Underberg valley below, we’ve got activity and relaxation in equal measure, all surrounded by the most breathtaking landscape. Our accommodation is reflected in our setting, and we provide rustic, lively, comfortable, clean, affordable lodging to suit all and any who are looking to get the most out of the great outdoors and this magnificent place we’re lucky enough to call home.
