Visit the Donkey Sanctuary in McGregor

The Donkey Sanctuary (and the independently-run Eseltjiesrus Country Kitchen restaurant) are open from Thursdays to Sundays, from 10h00 - 17h00. Situated just outside McGregor, immediately opposite the McGregor Winery, the Donkey Sanctuary is a registered welfare organisation.

The vision of the Donkey Sanctuary is to provide abused, neglected and elderly donkeys with the opportunity to live out their lives with respect and dignity, surrounded by their own kind, in a protective and natural environment. This need is not currently met by animal welfare agencies operative in the region.

Tourist groups are welcome, by prior arrangement. A typical visit could include a talk on donkeys, a short walk to visit some of the residents and, if required, an opportunity to brush / groom some of them. End your visit with tea and scones or lunch at the restaurant.
