Situated within Africa’s oldest proclaimed game reserve – Hluhluwe iMfolozi, Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge is the first and only private luxury lodge in this Big 5 safari destination, offering an up-market alternative to traditional park accommodation.
Spanning over 96,000 hectares, Hluhluwe iMfolozi is well-known as being the former hunting grounds of the Zulu Royal family but is now recognised for its efforts surrounding rhino conservation in South Africa.
Relax in luxury with amazing views at Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge
Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge is well-positioned high on a ridge with 16 modern suites designed to take advantage of the mind-blowing views whilst maintaining privacy.
Game drives are offered daily in both the morning and afternoon, and for the more adventurous, join a bush trail led by the legendary Nunu Jobe, also known as the ‘The Rhino Whisperer’.

How this lodge makes your trip more responsible
Hluhluwe iMfolozi is the last stronghold for both white and black rhinos in Africa, with a pioneering conservation success story. Built on community-owned land, Rhino Ridge Safari Lodge has collaborated with both the local Mpembeni Community and the game park, creating much-needed employment and generating revenue for conservation.
