Fauna

The reserve hosts endangered species such as the Cape mountain zebra and south-central black rhinoceros. Many species of antelope, including eland, gemsbok, red hartebeest, bontebok and springbok can be found on the reserve, following their reintroduction to the area, which was formerly farmland. As part of continued conservation efforts, wild South African cheetahs were relocated from a reserve in Karoo to the Gondwana Game Reserve. In addition to the free-roaming Big 5, the reserve is home to the south-western black rhinoceros, over 10 varieties of antelope (more than the Kruger National Park), and hundreds of head of general game.[1]

Location

Gondwana Game Reserve is an 11,000-hectare private game reserve. The reserve is within viewing distance of the Langeberg and Outeniqua Mountains and is 28.9 km from Mossel Bay.[2]

Activities

Available activities include Big 5 Game Drives, Mountain Biking, Hikes, Africology spa treatments, and the Junior Ranger program.[3]
