A trip to Hoedspruit offers a unique chance to enjoy incredible scenery and wildlife encounters. Start with a day at Moholoholo Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre – home to injured and abandoned wildlife. Expect to see animals such as lions, eagles and cheetahs.

Alternatively, spend a few hours at the beautiful Klaserie Waterfalls, located behind Hoedspruit along the Drakensberg Range. The falls are in a secluded private area and visitors must book in advance.
