Bush Walks

At Farmhouse in Matopos you can follow the wildlife trails with one of our guides, for an informative walk through the African bush. Visit either the Bushman cave paintings, ancient grain bins or Iron Age iron smelter. Track the wild animals to try and approach on foot.

Game Drives

Conducted in open Safari vehicles, take a leisurely drive in search of the game living on the Wildlife reserve. As dawn breaks, capture some wildlife photos with a sunrise back drop and return for a hearty breakfast. The sunset drive leaves late in the afternoon to view the animals coming to the waterholes for the last drink of the day. Finish with your sundowner drinks, snacks and a short night drive home.
