Butterflies For Africa | 37 Willowton Rd, Pietermaritzburg, 3201

Butterflies for Africa is a tropical butterfly centre offering butterflies and a whole lote more! The complex houses a walk-through Butterfly House (housing both exotic and indigenous butterflies), Butterfly Theme Store, Art Gallery, Coffee Shop, Nursery and a Butterfly Garden planted with a large range of butterfly foodplants.We have made a number of alterations to our walk-through butterfly house to make the facility wheelchair accessible. In the past only the lower sections of the butterfly house could accommodate visitors in wheelchairs but this has changed with the construction of a new bridge near the main waterfall. Paths have also been widened for this purpose. The new bridge takes visitors over the stream, which runs through the house, directly into the main flight path of the butterflies. It's a great opportunity to stand next to the cascading waterfall in the midst of dancing butterflies.
