The centre-piece of the Khowarib Lodge complex is the lapa, an immense thatched structure constructed from local materials in traditional style. A large kopje creates an impressive back drop to the reception, bar, lounge, dining area and curio shop.

Visitors relaxing on the veranda enjoy a panoramic view of the gorge, cliffs and surrounding area.

The luxury, en-suite tents are a short walk from the lodge to the river bank and comprise either twin or double bed sleeping arrangements. Viewing platforms extend from the front of each tent shaded by the plentiful Mopani trees but affording splendid views of the gorge. The bathrooms are spacious and well equipped and add to the feeling of indulgence and relaxation that Khowarib Lodge offers.

The complex benefits from mains electricity so peace and tranquillity are guaranteed. Additional services will include internet access and a Skype phone at the lapa later in 2009.

Naturally, the complex has been built to create minimal environmental impact.
