OUR GUESTS SAY
|
"Lupela means 'where the road ends' and I can assure you that you really won't want to travel further once you see the beautiful stretch of stream that runs sparkling in the sun below the lodge."
|
 |
Lupela Lodge is situated in a peaceful and scenic valley in the Witteberg Mountains and is hidden in a gorge that opens into a wide valley of green pastures and sandstone mountainsides. Awesome fly-fishing, warm hospitality and great food keep Lupela's guests returning year after year.
|
 |
Lupela is a world-class fly-fishing destination as regularly featured in fly-fishing magazines and Peter Brigg's beautiful book: Call of the Stream - A flyfishers passion for hunting trout in mountain streams.
