Khotso is your basecamp in the mountains whether you want to hike till you drop, ride out on horseback, or relax by the fire with a cold beer under the stars next to the braai. Looking out over the jagged peaks of the Southern Drakensberg and onto the Underberg valley below, we’ve got activity and relaxation in equal measure, all surrounded by the most breath-taking landscape. Our accommodation is reflected in our setting, and we provide rustic, lively, comfortable, clean, affordable lodging to suit all and any who are looking to get the most out of the great outdoors and this magnificent place we’re lucky enough to call home.

Dormitory Room: The gold standard of backpacking, tried and tested, affordable and sociable, meet other travellers without breaking the bank and be part of the lively community at the Backpackers Lodge.

En Suite: Nestled in each wing of the Backpackers Lodge, the en suite offers the comfort of your own shower room and views over the garden. It’s close enough to the action, but removed enough to make your own space your own.

Twin: With 2 single beds and a desk, the twin room shares a bathroom in the Backpackers Lodge and has easy access to the kitchen and the relaxed seating and dining area. Nice views over the garden.

Double: The comfortable double rooms all share shower and toilet facilities in the Backpackers Lodge and have easy access to the kitchen and the relaxed seating and dining area. Perfect for couples, or spoiling yourself after a long hike with your own room and double mattress.
