Summerfields Rose Retreat & Spa Hazyview & Paul Kruger Park Gate

Guests staying at the Summerfields Rose Retreat and Spa may join the guided tours of the rose production.

Summerfields Roses

The owners of Summefields Estate, with a vision to create an environment where active farming and hospitality can happily co-exist, established a greenhouse for the cultivation of long stem export quality, hybrid tea roses from French cultivars and to market these to the affluent local markets. The different rose varieties are cultivated with the utmost precision and tedious dedication to perfection. These flowers are sold not only on the farm, but also at Summerfields outlets in White River.

Exciting varieties in production from the rose tunnel

Old favourites like Altesse, Eden Romantica, Mini Eden, Baby Romantica and Black Baccara are still available. Roses can also be bought direct from the farm. R536 Hazyview-Sabie Road. Rose Tours are available.

Geckoiing

Geckoiing is the by far one of the best adventure activities that humans came up with. This is probably the best way to descend a low volume river like the Sabie. A Gecko is a very small raft that you steer with webbed gloves, no paddles needed! It is very easy to steer and very safe, and one of the coolest ways to have fun with family and friends in the sun and water.

Abseiling

Abseiling is an activity for the thrill seeker.  Face your fears and step over the edge into oblivion…Abseiling is commonly practiced the world over as a method of descending a rope in a safe and controlled manner. The abseil experience takes place at Makuhlu, a 27m high granite rock face overlooking the Kruger Park. This towering boulder is the ideal abseil venue, with an easy hike up the back of the cliff and a vertical drop at the front. Great rock formations and breathtaking views add spice to this adrenalin-packed experience. (Min 4 pax)

They accommodate both advanced and novice riders. Kids and first timers are also welcome.

The 1 hour trail is ideal for beginners and children but it also enjoyable for the more experienced rider who wants to have a quick run. The two hour trail goes through more technical terrain but is still suitable for the confident novice rider and is very popular with experienced riders.

Enjoy light snacks or lunch at the half way stop before departing on the second leg of the adventure.The moonlight trail is for all you romantics.
