WHERE ELANDS ROAM
When Lake Eland first opened, it was clear that the owners' commitment, enthusiasm, energy and vision would make this unique private game reserve the success it is today.
Every time you visit Lake Eland, there is something new and exciting to see and so, a way to come into close contact with the natural wold.
Hiking, mountain biking, fishing, birding and horse riding are just some of the popular activities that allow visitors close encounters with nature. This is an adventure tourism destination with a strong environmental ethos. Enjoy scenic 4x4 trails and experience guided game drive.
An impressive wedding venue, restaurant, pub area, picnic site and children's play area are on offer. A walk across the 80m suspension bridge, over a tree-filled section of the forge, is irresistible to visitors and the scenery from Eagle's Nest is nothing short of spectacular.
Another attraction is a walk-way leading to a series of caves overlooking the gorge, providing insight into the San culture.
