Get hooked on the most scenic spot in Dullstroom.
In the picturesque village of Dullstroom, an easy two and a half hours drive from Gauteng and a whopping 7000 feet above sea level, lays Critchley hackle Lodge. Howard Walker’s (of Walkersons fame) dream came true in 1988, when the lodge opened its doors for the first time. Since then it has grown in popularity and stature into the tranquil establishment with some of the best views in Dullstroom!
