umThombe Kei River Lodge Kei Mouth / Eastern Cape

Guest Lodge Accommodation
standard accommodation self-catering camping- and caravan park restaurant nature reserve beach
good views hiking trails fishing bird watching golf course
umThombe Kei River Lodge is situated on a 160ha private nature reserve along the banks of the Great Kei River. The pulse of the river is felt in everything here: whether you are gliding along in one of our kayaks (free for guests), hiking to hidden pools, fishing for the legendary cob, or simply watching the sunset turn the cliffs to gold as the crowned cranes fly home to roost.

Accommodation: thatched self-catering chalets tucked into the edge of indigenous forest, with lovely views of the river. Each chalet consist of two double rooms (both with en-suite bathrooms) connected by a semi-open dining/braai area and a fully-equipped kitchen. Meals can be taken at the restaurant. A bar and TV-lounge with DSTV are also available.
 
There are several hiking trails on the nature reserve, ranging from relaxed strolls through riverine forest to more serious hill-climbs, with rewarding views of the sea and Kei Mouth. Or be adventurous and explore the magnificent forests on the other side of the Kei River. We can provide maps and direct you to the best natural features, including Picnic Pool, Gxara Falls, the wreck of the Jacaranda and The Gates. Over 140 species of birds have been recorded.
 
At the end of the day join us for a sunset cruise aboard the ferry, or take a trip all the way up to Horse-shoe bend where the beauty of the Kei reaches her climax.
