Natal Spa

The Natal Spa Hot Springs Resort and Conference Centre situated in Northern KwaZulu-Natal, only 35 kms from Vryheid, and equidistance from Durban and Johannesburg, is ideally situated for a mutually accessible holiday destination. The Natal Spa is set on 800 acres of beautiful KZN veld, with easy access to 4 kms of the winding Bivane River which meanders through the property.

The resort's self catering units are tastefully furnished with a fully equipped kitchen, patio and braai area. Guests can enjoy the many facilities on offer including volleyball, tennis, squash, swimming, trampolines, and horse riding. Quad biking is a popular sport that appeals to both young and old, and with the spa being one of the few resorts on offer for quad bike enthusiasts, the 10 km track is an activity that the whole family can enjoy. In addition to this, the 110m super tube, one of the longest in KZN, is a must for the young ones.

Demarcated hiking trails offer the delight of genuine bushman paintings for our history buffs, and for the less energetic, the resort offers fishing , darts, snooker, and of course, the therapeutic waters of the five mineral baths. The waters that are found at the Natal Spa are known as "Triple Waters", and contain carbonates, chlorides and sulphates with a source temperature of 40c. The invigorating and healing properties of hot mineral waters have been enjoyed for centuries, and provide a constant supply of the beneficial waters.

The Spa is also one of the birding hot spots on the Zululand Birding route, and boasts over 160 bird species identified at the resort, as well as a breeding pair of Crowned Eagles. The huge magnificent granite boulders in the gardens provide perfect conditions for the local hyrax or rock rabbit population, commonly known as the "dassie.

Nearby attractions include tours of the Battle Fields, game drives and paragliding.
