The Bushmans River flowing through a deep-cut gorge, rich valley bushveld vegetation and the diversity of flora and fauna established Weenen Game Reserve as KwaZulu-Natal’s favourite Midlands wildlife destination. An excellent road network and guided and self guided trails allow visitors to view a variety of wildlife species including white rhino, giraffe, zebra, kudu, ostrich, common reedbuck, grey duiker, bushbuck, steenbuck and mountain reedbuck. Over 250 bird species have also been recorded. Guest facilities include a game-viewing hide near one of the waterholes, a vulture feeding site and three picnic sites with barbecue facilities. Weenen’s campsite boasts twelve shady campsites, which accommodate tents and caravans. Each campsite features barbecue facilities with firewood and charcoal for sale. Seven of the campsites are electrified. The modern ablutions feature hot baths and showers, flush toilets and basins. Weenen Game Reserve also features a fully equipped, self-catering cottage for the convenience of guests. Tel: (036) 354 7013.
