Kariega Game Reserve - The Homestead

This malaria-free "Big-5" family owned and operated private Game Reserve comprises nearly 6000 hectares of pristine wilderness that spans across 5 different eco-systems (riverine forest, valley bushveld, savannah grasslands, fynbos and acacia woodlands). The reserve is home to more than 25 species of game including Lion, Elephant, Leopard, Buffalo, White Rhino, Hippo, Hyena, Giraffe, Zebra, Wildebeest, Waterbuck, Nyala, Kudu, Warthog and a variety of other Antelope and more than 280 species of birds amongst which are high soaring Martial, Crowned and Fish Eagles which nest on the Reserve. Kariega prides itself in the abundance of general game and birdlife supplementing the "Big-5". A unique feature is the ability to walk freely and safely amongst the game in an area of the reserve which excludes the dangerous "Big-5" animals.
