Activities on the Reserve
The game drives morning and afternoon are engaging with superb views, varied flora and abundant game. Nineteen different species roam the reserve, including roan, sable, giraffe and wildebeest, leopard and cheetah are also seen from time to time.
The reserve can also be explored on foot while accompanied by one of our guides or on your own.
Existing roads and game tracks make the going easier on foot. The reserve is very hilly, so a basic level of fitness is required.
Mountain bike enthusiasts are welcome to bring their own bikes to self-explore the terrain and its challenges. Horses are also a very eco-friendly way of exploring the lie of the land... quiet and un-invasive allowing guests to get a lot closer to the game than in a vehicle.
If the bush does not interest you then, there is Windhoek City with its many malls, shops and markets where you can shop till you drop!
