Brahman Hills has broken ground on its new Serenity Garden, which will centre on what the property says is set to become the world’s largest labyrinth. The development, launched on November 25, covers 22 hectares in the KwaZulu-Natal Midlands.
The labyrinth is the next phase of expansion for the site, which already includes the Royal Horticultural Society Partner Garden – one of only two in Africa, featuring 26 garden rooms, wild meadows and a forest walk.
Brahman Hills CEO Orrin Cottle said the project extends the property’s existing horticultural and eco-tourism focus.
Cottle said the design draws on sacred geometry and traditional walking meditations, weaving through indigenous plant species, art, sculpture and quiet spaces. “The Serenity Garden will become a space of healing, reflection and reconnection with nature, complementing Brahman Hills’ existing eco-conscious offerings,” he said. The project represents investment in tourism, job creation and community upliftment in the Midlands, added Cottle.
Construction has started following finalised approvals. Brahman Hills plans to invite Guinness World Records to verify the labyrinth’s status once completed.
