Just one and a half hours away from central Johannesburg and past the expansive waters of the Hartebeestpoort Dam lies the wild and rolling hills and valleys of the Pilansberg Game Reserve.
This reserve teams with wildlife and birdlife reminiscent of times long passed when the entire landscape was in complete harmony. Located in the transition zone between the western arid Kalahari and the wetter eastern Lowveld, there is a huge variety of geology, landscape, rainfall and vegetation and this gives rise to a diversity of animals and birds not encountered elsewhere in the country.
