Forest Creek nestles in a gorge of the Steenkampsburg Mountains, set in a Private Nature reserve of the Mpumalanga escarpment. The gorge is softened only by a blanket of shrubs and trees which have grown in this malaria-free zone over millennia. Surrounded with magnificent views of our Mountains It is only when one gets to the gate of Forest Creek Lodge that the rock-strewn grassland is left behind, one climbs up, and up, and enter this little enchanted world. On this magnificent piece of land we hope we have catered for everyone, from Luxury guest suites at the main lodge to the Self catering options. For the International traveler Forest Creek Lodge is an ideal place to relax and unwind after a long flight - a mere 130 km to the Kruger National Park. At Forest Creek you will dine on a four-course d'hôte dinner served in our candle-lit dining room (Table d'hôte is a French phrase that literally means "host's table"), a choice of five-breakfast menus. TROUT FISHING We are situated half way down the Steenkampberg Mountain Range at an altitude ideally suited to the rapid growth of Rainbow and Brown trout. Our cold, clear perennial stream feeds the trophy dam in where these lovely fish abide in a truly beautiful setting. HIKING TRAILS One of our unique activities at Forest Creek are the Hiking Trails in the “Cloud Forest”. The trails are designed for the entire family, and are most suitable for the even not-so-fit person. Under this canopy of trees and at the edge of the Mountain one feels very small, in comparison to the magical views. Walk to the waterfall, in the forest and criss-crossing the stream, under the canopy of large indigenous trees. One is likely to hear the baboons barking and spot the odd bush buck or red duiker. In the wetter months the ferns, orchids and wild mushrooms offer spectacular opportunities for the more photographic inclined. A tree platform built in a large fig tree above the forest canopy, is an ideal stop for birders or to just relax and enjoy a picnic! Scattered in the forest are remnants of old stone structures some of which are supposedly several thousand years old and are under study at present. The forest is beautiful, friendly and safe.
