Dlinza Forest

They are the most important forests in southern Africa from the aspect of unique biodiversity.

It contains rare birds,[2] chameleons,[3] snails,[3] butterflies,[4] moths,[3] frogs[3] and beetles.

[4] Dlinza is the home of more than 65 species of birds,[2] including the endangered spotted ground thrush which breeds here,[5] rare Delegorgue's pigeon,[6] magnificent purple-crested turaco[7] and Narina trogon.

[8] The name Dlinza is derived from Zulu meaning a gravelike place of meditation after the peaceful setting.

Occasional church services are held here and every 3 years a nativity play, written by Selwyn Moberley in 1953, is staged in the forest.
