About Us

Verlorenkloof Estate is a limited development in the heart of the Trout Triangle near Lydenburg. The estate’s most outstanding feature is its natural beauty, with awesome mountains and a pristine trout river providing owners of the share-block with an unforgettable brush with nature.

The Location

Follow the N4 for three hours from Gauteng, turn off through verdant farm lands and find Verlorenkloof Estate in a beautiful secluded valley at the foot of the  escarpment between Machadodorp and Lydenburg.

The estate is a well-known landmark in a safe and settled rural community and is bordered by the Crocodile River from where the land sweeps up through wetland and grassland to the forested kloofs of the Steenkampsberg and the Dullstroom highlands above.

Lydenburg is the closest town 45 km away, Nelspruit is 100 km, and all the spectacular sights of the Escarpment and Lowveld are within a two hour drive.

The People

Verlorenkloof was developed and is managed by Eric and Heidi Johnson, whose family has owned property in the area since 1970. They are assisted by a dedicated and experienced team, all resident on the estate or nearby. There is a firm commitment to service, the land and its people, with close attention to detail.

The owners at Verlorenkloof are largely from Pretoria and Johannesburg and share in the strong sense of custodianship over land and nature.

The reception building of the development has a food service and deli, library, shop, DSTV and conference facilities.
