Location
We are situated in the Free State just outside Parys, nestled in the Vredefort Dome bordering 8km of Vaal River frontage. Therefore we own some of the most beautiful and breathtaking sites and sunsets!
We have the pleasure of sharing 2500 acres with 25 different mammal species including buffalo, giraffe, sable, zebra, kudu and many more. The list is endless; come and join us for a scenic game drive.
The 8km of Vaal frontage that was mentioned is ideal for paddling, bird watching over 300 species and fishing. We also have hiking and biking trails along the river for relaxing strolls or extreme sports!
