Little Switzerland Hotel - A family hotel nestled in the
Northern Drakensberg of South Africa
Little Switzerland Hotel is a family hotel nestled in the
Northern
Drakensberg Mountains. Little Switzerland Hotel offers an unforgettable
experience enhanced by the peace and tranquillity of the majestic Drakensberg
mountains. Savour the breathtaking views, explore the lush fern-filled forests,
seek out the exciting bird life and delight in this ancient wilderness of
flower decked foothills, bubbling streams and cascading waterfalls, where
old mysteries remain and the tiny San left their priceless legacy of rock
art. Undeniably a little bit of heaven in a very special land.
Little
Switzerland Hotel is situated midway between Johannesburg
and Durban on the
national highway. It is a comfortable three to three and a half hour trip
by car from either city. Situated at an altitude of 1600m above sea level,
it is one of the highest resorts in South Africa and enjoys unsurpassed
views of the Drakensberg
mountains.
Little Switzerland is very popular with South Africans as well as a growing
fraternity of foreign tourists, not only for the beautiful views and superb
cuisine, but also for the hikes and walks organised by the Resort to the top
of the Amphitheatre (elevation 3050m). Set in a private estate of some 1700
hectares (+/- 4000 acres), Little Switzerland is unrivalled by any other
Resort in the Drakensberg
The Little Swiss Mountain Chalet complex is annexed to the Hotel property
and offers even more stunning views. From here you overlook the entire
Northern and Central Berg all the way to Champagne Valley, or for
Birdwatchers the indigenous Yellowwood forest. Each Chalet is built on
split-level to make the most of this panoramic spectacle. These spacious,
luxuriously appointed and fully equipped chalets provide a haven of privacy
for a great family getaway with plenty to keep the kids occupied. We make
the beds and wash your dishes, so that you can relax and enjoy your holiday
