Umziki Chalets & Camping

Situated in the heart of the Zululand bushveld near Jozini, Umziki Chalets & Camping offers a premier wilderness escape that feels worlds away from the city despite its proximity to the N2. Perched on a hill with breathtaking panoramic views of the Jozini (Pongolapoort) Dam, this resort is a haven for those who want to immerse themselves in nature where plains game roams freely through the camp. The atmosphere is one of exclusive tranquility, providing a grounded yet high-end experience that perfectly captures the wild spirit of northern KwaZulu-Natal.

The camping experience here is defined by total privacy and specialized comfort. The stands are thoughtfully designed with paved areas set under permanent roofed structures, providing essential protection from the Zululand sun. Each site is a self-contained sanctuary, featuring its own private ablution block with hot-water showers, a dedicated scullery area, and a private plunge pool to cool off during the heat of the day. With integrated power and water points at each stand, the resort offers a sophisticated "bush-luxury" setup that allows you to enjoy the rugged landscape without sacrificing personal convenience.

Life at Umziki is a blend of relaxation and high-energy fun. Families are exceptionally well-catered for with an exhilarating 58-meter water slide, a kiddies' zipline, and a dedicated play area. For nature enthusiasts, the property offers self-guided game drives and a viewing hide perfect for birding and photography. Its location also makes it an ideal base for world-class tiger fishing on the Jozini Dam or exploring nearby game reserves. Whether you are watching the sunset over the water from your private deck or gathered around a fire in the communal boma, Umziki provides a majestic and well-equipped gateway to the elephant coast.
