Mountain top views are spectacular at Kurisa Moya


Kurisa Moya, nestled in the Northern Drakensberg escarpment, overlooks the breathtaking Kudu's River valley but is only 45 minutes from the city of Pietersburg / Polokwane and 20 minutes from the mountain village of Haenertsburg and the beautiful Magoebaskloof. It is a 3 1/2 - 4 hour trip from Johannesburg / Gauteng

  This piece of paradise truly embodies its Xitsonga name, Kurisa Moya, meaning Tranquil Spirit. It is a place where you can  revive your soul.
 
    

 The self-catering farmhouse, sleeping up to 10 people, serves as a base for a wide variety of activities and tours on the farm and in the surrounding area. The large, comfortable farmhouse, built in 1937, is situated so as to offer spectacular views of the farm. The house has 5 en-suite bedrooms, a large living and dining area, a well-equipped kitchen, two bathrooms and a wide verandah on two sides. The house is designed for socializing so the kitchen, lounge and verandah are popular places in which to meet and relax. The farmhouse is cool in the summer and is warmed by cozy fireplaces during winter. The lovely gardens offer tranquility and peace and there is a plunge pool in which to cool off on hot summer days.

The  well-equipped kitchens of all our venues are perfect for self-catering but dinner, breakfast and lunch can be supplied on request. Alternatively, your first groceries can be bought for you so you can really relax and enjoy the restful nature of Kurisa Moya.

The two Forest Lodge cabins, each sleeping between 2 and 4, are set in a breathtaking indigenous forest. From your deck you can look out onto massive trees which host playful samango monkeys or Narina Trogons. The cabins are fully self-contained with a fully equipped kitchen and en-suite bathroom.  

Thora Boloka cottage, sleeping between 2 and 6, has spectacular views down into the Kudu's River Valley.  There are unique features like handmade washbasins, gum branches for doorposts and an outdoor shower with a view.  The huge patios afford opportunities to see baboons, klipspringer and black eagles in a place of complete privacy and tranquility

By being eco-friendly, we hope to encourage a sustainable future for this beautiful natural environment.

Kurisa Moya Nature Lodge is the perfect place where you can relax in a tranquil setting or, if you prefer to be more active, to hike, fish, or bird-watch, etc.
Various marked trails of graded difficulty and length lead you through a wide range of habitats on the farm. A two day trail down to a game farm in the Kudu's River Valley is a new attraction.

The Woodbush area is one of the top birding sites as mentioned in in Callan Cohen, Claire Spottiswood and Jonathan Rossouw's book South African Birdfinder and in Hugh Chittendin's book, Top Birding Spots in Southern Africa.
