About Sani Lodge Backpackers

Sani Lodge Backpackers Logo

Sani Lodge provides a wide range of accommodation deep within the majestic Southern Drakensberg Mountains of South Africa, bordering directly onto the World Heritage listed uKhahlamba Drakensberg Park.

Situated at the foot of the Sani Pass, the Gateway to the mountain Kingdom of Lesotho, Sani Lodge is a peaceful country haven with a laid back atmosphere, where guests can simply kick off their shoes and wholly unwind. Russell and Simone Suchet started the Lodge in 1992 and are both passionate about the wilderness, mountains and Lesotho. Join Russell for a chat about the new 7th edition of his book “A Backpacker’s Guide to Lesotho” over a cup of tea or coffee and a slice of our renowned chocolate cake.

Relax at “One of the Best Backpackers away from the big towns in South Africa" (SA Handbook), breathe in pure mountain air, soak up sunshine next to invigorating mountain pools only half an hour hike away, retire to the sunny reading nook, enjoy sundowners on our veranda facing the awesome mountain range bordering onto Lesotho, and in winter, curl up in front of a log fire in the cosy common room.

Sani Lodge Backpackers are in the Southern Drakensberg, 19 km from the town of Underberg. The last 10 km of the road from Underberg to Sani Lodge is a good quality dirt road which is currently being upgraded to a tar surface. Most maps of South Africa show the Sani Pass Hotel on them – we are 1km before the hotel.
