HLUHLUWE GAME RESERVE - HILLTOP CAMP
'Winner of the British Airways Tourism For Tomorrow Award'
The award-winning Hilltop Camp on the summit of a forested hill offers fine views of the
surrounding countryside. The camp, the oldest in KwaZulu-Natal, was extensively rebuilt and
enlarged in the early nineties, and today accommodation at Hilltop ranges from a luxury lodge to a
variety of superbly appointed self-catering accommodation facilities. All units are serviced daily.
From the bottom of the price range up, facilities include: twenty 2-bedded rondavels with communal
ablutions and kitchens; seven 2-bedded and twenty-two 4-bedded self-catering chalets. Twenty
2-bedded chalets, which are not self-catering, are within close proximity to the main reception
area. This area includes an a la carte restaurant, an attractive pub and lounge decorated with
photographs and memorabilia of the history of Hluhluwe, as well as a gift shop and convenience
store.
A forest trail is available to guests at Hilltop. Hlaza Hide has been developed at the site of
the old summerhouse in Hilltop Camp and it will shortly incorporate a waterhole with soft lighting
at night to aid game viewing.
The Mpunyane Restaurant offers a full English buffet breakfast every day. Lunches from Monday
to Saturday are a la carte and on Sundays a hot and cold buffet. Dinners are either a hot and cold
buffet or a traditional braai(barbeque) depending on the weather. Dinner arrangements do change
according to guest profiles and holidays.
