For game viewing from your own vehicle, the Addo Elephant National Park which is home to over 300 elephants, will also give you the opportunity of seeing black rhino, Cape buffalo, eland, kudu and various antelope species, is about 30 minutes away.

The Nukakamma Canoe Trail, situated on the Sundays River, also on our doorstep offers canoeists the advantage of paddling a two day trail of 28 km, or if fit and energetic, as long as 50 km.

The Shamwari Game Reserve, within 40 km, offers you an African Adventure, and is home to the “Big 5”, as well as a traditional arts and cultural village where you will experience the rituals and customs of the AmaXhosa.

For a little piece of Africa, The Addo Crocodile Ranch and Reed Valley Crocodile Farm, again 20 minutes away, offers guided daily tours, and boasts great Restaurant and Bar facilities.

The Schotia Private Game Reserve offers scenic game drives, delicious meals in their lapa, and is situated only 15 minutes away. It is well worth a visit.
