Bushmans Kloof Wilderness Reserve - South Africa
Under watchful African skies, rugged and yet graceful, a land once the very cradle of humankind has been rediscovered and brought to life…Bushman's Kloof, the heartbeat of an African wilderness…the rebirth of a forgotten land. Immense open plains, deep ravines, spectacular waterfalls and prehistoric rock formations characterise this ecological oasis, nestled between the majestic mountains of the Cederberg and the vast plains of the Great Karoo.
270 Kilometers north of Cape Town, unique and unspoilt, this once hunting ground of the intrepid San, is home to an incredible variety of wildlife and plant species, and is a premier spring flower destination.
Since 1992, Bushmans Kloof has embodied the rebirth and development of this sanctuary, with a mission to create a thriving wilderness, which nurtures its indigenous life, protects its history and secures its future. In recognition of its rich cultural, historical and environmental significance, Bushmans Kloof has been declared a South African Natural Heritage site.
