My favourite place to go for dinner

This restaurant offers a great family experience with the local donkeys being apart of your evening. I would definitely suggest having the Chicken Espetada as a main, it is the best chicken you will ever have!

The only restaurant in town that does sushi and there is an amazing play area for children. Their sushi is out of this world and they offer a full Menu if sushi is not your thing.

Amazing views and even better food. This restaurants offers luxury, if that is what you are looking for. If you have small children, I would maybe suggest a different restaurant as there is a swimming pool right in the middle of the restaurant. But definitely the place to go for a romantic meal.

Nightlife

Really cosy bar that once used to be the old railway station in Hoedspruit, many moons ago. Perfect place for young people to go and have a night out. They do serve food as well - the Pizzas are really good

Sightseeing

Blue Mountain is probably one of the best places to go if you want to have peace and quiet with an amazing view. The buffet breakfasts are my favourite.

Something for the kids

The Hoedspruit Cafe offers healthy food options and has an amazing play area for the cildren - don't worry, there is also some "unhealthy" food choices on the Menu. I love taking my daughter here

This is something that your kids will absolutely love or even you! You get a tour with a guide that takes you to see all the animals they have that is either being rehabilitated to go back into the wild or that unfortunately will never be able to be released because of injuries etc. I love taking my daughter here and it is also very educational. You also get to interact with some of the animals.

City/town information

Hoedspruit is probably one of the most special places in South Africa. Our little town is knows as a wildlife haven and that is because of the conservation in and around Hoedspruit. Hoedspruit has so much to offer visitors but also has that peaceful bush feeling that everyone is always looking for. The people are friendly and welcoming.
