How to get there

Proceed on the N4 past Witbank, Middelburg and Belfast on to Machadodorp.

After Belfast, watch out for "Milly's" (on your left). The turnoff to Machadodorp is 3.6km after Milly's. Turn right off the highway towards the town. Be careful - this is a very bad intersection. After turning off, travel 500m to the first stop sign. There is a BP garage on your right. Turn right here and you will be on the R36 to Carolina. There is no cell phone reception past Machadodorp. After 25km look out for the Doornkop sign and turn right.

Carry on for 25.9 kms from the stop street until you see the "Doornkop" sign. Turn left. You can, in any case, only turn one way. Proceed on gravel road for 4.6 km until you see the green sign to Komati Gorge. Turn left here. If you get to Doornkop, you have gone too far!

You will immediately cross a low water bridge across the Komati River. Proceed for a further 2 km. You will pass through big silver gates marked "no admittance" - Don't worry carry on!
Cross a second bridge. Immediately thereafter the road forks - Keep left as indicated by the sign to Komati Gorge. Proceed for a further 3 kms. You will go up a hill and thereafter down a steep concrete road. Komati Gorge Development is at the bottom of the hill. The restaurant is on your left and reception is on your right.
