The Umfolozi River (also uMfolozi, Imfolozi or Mfolozi) is a river in KwaZulu-Natal, a province of South Africa. It is formed by the confluence of the Black (Imfolozi emnyama) and White Umfolozi (Imfolozi emhlope) Rivers near the southeastern boundary of the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Game Reserve. The isiZulu name imFolozi is generally considered to describe the zigzag course followed by both tributaries, though other explanations have been given.

  • Der Umfolozi River (oft Mfolozi) ist ein Fluss in der südafrikanischen Provinz KwaZulu-Natal. (de)
  • L'Umfolozi (parfois uMfolozi, Imfolozi ou Mfolozi) est un fleuve du KwaZulu-Natal, une province d'Afrique du Sud. Il est formé par la confluence de l'Umfolozi noir (Imfolozi emnyama) et de l'Umfolozi blanc (Imfolozi emhlope) près de la limite sud-est de la réserve d'Hluhluwe-Umfolozi, aux coordonnées 28° 20′ 58″ S, 31° 58′ 46″ E. Le nom isiZulu imFolozi est censé décrire le cours sinueux des deux affluents, quoique d'autres explications aient été avancées. Le fleuve coule vers l'est et rejoint l'océan Indien juste au sud de l'embouchure du lac Sainte-Lucie et du parc de la zone humide d'iSimangaliso. Le flux calme et les roselières, qui jouent un rôle de filtre naturel pour les limons, font du fleuve un habitat pour de nombreuses espèces. (fr)
  • The Umfolozi River (also uMfolozi, Imfolozi or Mfolozi) is a river in KwaZulu-Natal, a province of South Africa. It is formed by the confluence of the Black (Imfolozi emnyama) and White Umfolozi (Imfolozi emhlope) Rivers near the southeastern boundary of the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi Game Reserve. The isiZulu name imFolozi is generally considered to describe the zigzag course followed by both tributaries, though other explanations have been given. The river flows in an easterly direction to the Indian Ocean at , a coastal resort just south of the St Lucia River mouth. It originally meandered over the Monzi Flats, where it split into numerous slow-flowing channels before entering the St. Lucia Estuary at Honeymoon Bend. The slow-moving water and reed beds in channels operated as a natural filtering system that removed silt from the Umfolozi floodwaters and created a rich habitat for numerous species. (en)
