Considered to be one of Southern Africa's premier conference and holiday venues, Alpine Heath Resort allows you to relax in the comfort of an exclusive mountain village nestled in the midst of the Northern Drakensberg.
The resort offers superb chalet accommodation, fine dining, an abundance of indoor and outdoor activities and the finest state-of-the-art conference facilities in Southern Africa.
Alpine Heath invites you to surround yourself with the splendour of crystal-clear streams and mountain-fresh air, while experiencing the luxury and serenity of our resort complex.
At Alpine Heath, each of the 100 luxurious chalets is equipped with a telephone, cellular reception and satellite TV, and offers all the privacy you could ask for.
The three-bedroom chalets comfortably sleep six in a master bedroom which is en-suite and two double rooms each fitted with twin beds. The second bathroom also has the convenience of both a bath and shower.
The comfortable lounge is furnished with a lounge suite, satellite television and a fireplace and leads out onto your personal 'patio in the berg'.
For those wishing to 'self-cater' the fitted kitchen complete with crockery and cutlery is open plan to the lounge / dining room area which also has a dining table with six chairs. The outdoor patio has outdoor furniture and braai / barbeque facilities can be arranged at our reception desk.
With a backdrop of the stunning mountains of the Northern Drakensberg, this stylish Afro-Swiss designed resort blends perfectly into the landscape. The village square is situated at the centre of the resort with the 100 three-bedroom chalets conveniently situated around the main buildings that surround the square.
Offering facilities, and standards of service and cuisine one would expect of a four-star establishment, Alpine Heath is unique in that it is a village complete with delicatessen, patisserie and chapel, and its own charming village square.

From the moment you get here, you'll discover Alpine Heath is all about flexibility. You can self-cater and shop for necessities at the village patisserie or you have the opportunity to treat yourself to the fine fare of La Gruyéres restaurant and the Village Brasserrie. With enormous breakfast buffets, elegant midday menus and exceptional evening fare, the choice is yours.
La Gruyers Restaurant is open daily for Breakfast and Dinner, where a buffet and an A la Carte menu are available. Additionally for your dining pleasure, our In-room Dining Menu is available. Due to the fact that we cannot allow open braai's, we have for your convenience gas braai's for hire. The rate includes a R400.00 refundable deposit, and a daily charge of R45.00. Please advise us well in advance if you wish us to reserve a braai, as this is on a first come, first served basis. However, you are more than welcome to bring along your own gas braai.
Alpine Heath offers a wonderful variety of sports and leisure activities. In our fully equipped gymnasium and squash courts even the fittest will work up a sweat.

You can also cool off in our two crystal-clear swimming pools surrounded by breath-taking scenery, while the kids play on a super jungle gym.
