Welcome to Ntsinini

Where nature sets the pace

About Ntsinini

Ntsinini is a private escape where nature sets the pace. Nestled on the Mpumalanga escarpment, our rivers, waterfalls, and forests invite you to slow down, reconnect, and share time with family and friends. It is a place where children can explore freely, swim, rock hop, ride their bikes, and experience farm life up close. Ntsinini boasts over 10km of river fishing for rainbow trout and a uniquely endemic yellow fish species, as well as a prolific bird population of over 250 species. Just 2.5 hours from Johannesburg, Ntsinini is a sanctuary that feels a world away.

Exceptional Winter Fishing

Cast into 11 km of free-flowing streams which are the Elands and Swartkoppies Rivers. Ntsinini is a haven for fly-fishing for both trout and the endemic bushveld smallscale yellowfish, with tranquil waters and pristine surroundings that make every catch memorable.

Eco Friendly Stays

Four thoughtfully designed cottages blend comfort with care for the environment. Each is positioned for privacy and sweeping views, offering a peaceful retreat in nature, where you can slow down, breathe, and settle into the rhythm of Ntsinini.

Nature On Your Doorstep

Wake up to birdsong and soft morning light. Follow forest paths and riverbanks where game moves quietly through the bush. Explore waterfalls, rocky outcrops, and open grasslands alive with over 250 bird species. Each day gives you a new way to connect with the wild.

"Visited for the annual Ntsinini Trail Run over two days. A magnificent weekend on the trails with spectacular views from the mountain tops and breathtaking rivers, waterfalls and wildlife. A great place to refresh mind and body (and a dip in the river will certainly wake you up). Can’t wait to do it all again."
