Adventure for those who venture out!.
Breath-taking views of the fantastic Indian Ocean, indigenous forest and Tsitsikamma mountains.
Location
Misty Mountain Reserve is set high on the Tsitsikamma mountains along the Garden Route in South Africa. The lodge looks out across endless forest and ocean views, with whales and dolphins often seen offshore. It’s a wonderfully peaceful base from which to explore the adventure and beauty of the Garden Route, from coastal hikes and forest trails to nearby beaches and rivers.
Rooms
The reserve offers a wide range of accommodation, from cosy lodge suites and family chalets to tented camps and luxurious ocean-view lodges with private hot tubs. Each space is designed to make the most of the setting, whether that’s waking to sea breezes on your deck, soaking in a spa bath, or enjoying the warmth of a wood-burning fireplace. Guests love the variety, which means there’s something here for couples, families, and adventurers alike.
Amenities
What we love about Misty Mountain is the mix of comfort and nature. The main lodge has a restaurant and bar with sweeping views, while the infinity pool feels like it melts into the ocean below. There’s also a games room, children’s play area, and quiet garden spaces to enjoy. Evenings often end around the firepit, with clear skies above and the sound of the forest all around.
Activities
Misty Mountain is perfectly placed for both relaxation and adventure. On site, you can enjoy walking trails, birdwatching, and the thrill of Africa’s longest zipline, which runs over waterfalls and valleys. Beyond the reserve, the Garden Route offers a world of activities, from kayaking in Storms River and hiking Tsitsikamma National Park, to exploring local markets and craft shops. For those who prefer a slower pace, simply watching the whales and dolphins from the lodge deck can be the highlight of the day.
Sustainability
The reserve is committed to protecting its spectacular natural surroundings. Eco-friendly building and water-saving practices minimise its footprint, while the restaurant places emphasis on locally sourced produce.
