Hidden Paradise

Kube Yini Private Game Reserve is situated in the Northern region of KwaZulu-Natal in the heart of the Maputaland biodiversity hotspot that occupies the area between the Great Escarpment and the Indian ocean. Kube Yini straddles the southern end of Ubombo Mountain range that forms the western edge of an area known as the Elephant coast, one of South Africa’s ecotourism jewels.
The total area of the Reserve is 1214 hectares situated centrally within a region that comprised of number of larger “big -five” reserves including the acclaimed iSimangaliso Wetland Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the private game reserves of Mun-Ya-Wana, Thanda and Manyoni. (making up a combined land area of approximately 385,000 hectares)
The reserves 50 Shareholder sites are situated on an elevated central plateau of the Ubombo Mountain Range and boast unique, breathtaking views from all sites, along with year-round refreshing breezes that provide welcome relief from the warm KwaZulu-Natal climate. In the north of the reserve the plateau gives way to a steep escarpment dropping dramatically down to an alluvial terrace, some 200 metres below, and the Msunduze River that forms the boundary of the reserve with the Ngwenya community.
