Beautifully positioned in a semi-circle of mountains and surrounded by a
wonderful wilderness area and with unimpeded views from every window, Mafube
Mountain retreat is a hikers and nature lover's paradise. It is the perfect
place for a weekend getaway, a family reunion, or a group holiday or retreat.
Leave the rat race behind for a while and come and reconnect with your inner
spirit as you marvel at God's unspoiled and spectacular creation.
Explore the hiking trails and mountain paths. Take a walk back in time and stand
where dinosaurs once roamed, leaving their footprints behind as evidence!
