Camp Figtree Lodge



Camp Figtree, a private game reserve set in the heart of Addo on top of the stunning Zuurberg Mountain range. This luxury colonial lodge with its breathtaking 270-degree views offers the finest in lodge cuisine and service in a style reminiscent of its previous bygone era. The game reserve is wedged between the Addo Elephant National Park to the north and east and the Riverbend conservancy to the South.


Camp Figtree is a remote, private lodge set on top of the stunning Zuurberg mountain range. Resting between a conservancy and the Addo Elephant National Park, the camp boasts the most breathtaking 270-degree views to be found in the Eastern Cape. Camp Figtree has been designed around its original 1920's traditional colonial building style. Historically, this includes the distinctive use of corrugated iron roofing and wide, sweeping verandas which provide areas for relaxed sociability. The lounge and dining room are intoxicatingly evocative of the romantic colonial era.


At Camp Figtree, four luxury suites offer guests the unique opportunity to experience exclusivity, privacy, and the gracious style of Old World elegance. Each bedroom is individually decorated, has a bathroom en-suite, and has a private veranda featuring stunning views. In addition, a separate luxury tented camp has recently been constructed. This camp is in close proximity to the main lodge, and has been designed to mirror the hey-day of the golden years of the East African tented safari.


MALARIA FREE AFRICAN BUSHVELDInternational guests will find comfort in knowing the entire region is malaria free. Evenings are spent in traditional African style around a unique "boma" with the sounds of the crackling fire and night noises drifting up from the lush valley below.
