A wonderous province, rich in culture, history, iconic mountainscapes, stunning beach resorts and big-five safari parks, Kwazulu-Natal (KZN) offers some of South Africa’s most ecologically diverse and unforgettable attractions. The perfect place for road trips and family glamping.
You’ll see Zulu cultural influences engrained in every strand of this province, not least because KwaZulu is translated to ‘home of the Zulus’, but the region offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to visit tribal homesteads, historic Anglo-Zulu battlefields, bustling markets and ancient plantations. Ask your campsite about a tour hosted by a Zulu local who’ll proudly guide you through their ancestral land.
It’s no secret that KZN is a world-leader in conservation, home to two UNESCO World Heritage sites: iSimangaliso Wetland Park fiercely protecting the subtropical coast (and endangered hippos) upon the Indian Ocean, and uKhalamba-Drakensburg Park, birthplace of Africa’s most valuable San Rock paintings. Both outstandingly beautiful and a dream destination if you’re a camper, seeking a majestic backdrop.
Quite literally, KZN is the best in the game, with world-leading safari parks and game reserves such as Hluhluwe-Imfolozi continuing to protect endangered African Rhinos, their big-4 friends and plenty of other wildlife species.
Don’t miss out on a camping site in Durban, one of South Africa’s most jaw-dropping beach towns or in the foothills of the Drakensberg Mountains.
Those seeking a fully-immersive, camping adventure that guarantees ‘the best of South Africa’ won’t be disappointed with the endless memories KZN gifts them.
