Princess Vlei Lodge

*A beautiful day at Princess Vlei, celebrating a public space that belongs to the people of Cape Town.* 🌿

This new trail gives residents and visitors more room to move, breathe, connect and enjoy the natural beauty of the vlei.

What makes this project special is not only the path itself, but the partnership behind it: with the Princess Vlei Forum, community organisations, residents, Ward Councillor Kevin Southgate and our City teams all playing a role in caring for this space.💙

Princess Vlei is a place of history, biodiversity and community pride. Let’s enjoy it, protect it and keep it special for generations to come.

✨🦆🌿 Discover the Living Heart of Nature at Princess Vlei Wetland Park 🌿🦆✨

Did you know that Princess Vlei Wetland Park is home to an incredible diversity of birdlife, indigenous plants, and protected species right in the heart of Cape Town? 💚

From the graceful African Fish Eagle soaring above the water, to the colourful Kingfishers, Sacred Ibises, Herons, Sunbirds and seasonal migrant birds, the vlei is a sanctuary for bird lovers, photographers, walkers and families alike. 🐦📸

The wetlands also protect precious indigenous plant life including Cape Flats fynbos vegetation, water plants, reeds and medicinal species that form part of our natural and cultural heritage. 🌾🌸

Princess Vlei is more than a beautiful landscape it is a living ecosystem, a community treasure, and a space of memory, healing and biodiversity. Many protected species depend on healthy wetlands like these for survival, reminding us why conservation and community stewardship matter. 🌍💧

Whether you come for birdwatching, peaceful walks, kayaking, environmental education or simply to reconnect with nature, every visit helps celebrate and protect this unique wetland environment. 💙

And on the banks of the Princess Wetland park lies Princess Vlei Lodge

Let us continue to honour, protect and restore our wetlands for future generations.

“The place was just as described and with beautiful scenery. It’s private, feels like home and the host was most accommodating, friendly and made sure we were always attended to when needed. We felt safe and the access to all tourist hotspots was great and the place easy to find. We definitely will be going back and recommending the place to our family and friends.”
