Unique experiences
Off-road adventure at Fugitives’ Drift
Not only is it embedded in history, but Fugitives’ Drift Lodge is one of those few places in South Africa from where, if you wanted, you could explore a private game reserve completely on your own. Without a predator in sight, giraffe, zebra, impala and bushbuck are just a few of the thriving creatures that traverse this land.
Giving back at Fugitives’ Drift Lodge
In isiZulu, the word khula means to grow, and that was the vision when David and Nicky Rattray set out to found the David Rattray Foundation, now known as KHULA Education. At Fugitives’ Lodge the cost of your stay incudes a charitable contribution split between KHULA and Fugitives’ Drift Game Reserve. This helps ensure the development of schools as well as the sustainability of the surrounding environment and wildlife.
Facilities
In keeping with the homely setting, meals are served communally in the dining room or outside if weather permits.
