Outfit Overview

Hunting Areas

Vaalwater – Private hunting Estates

Vaalwater is the closest town to all of our private hunting areas. The town is 2.5 hours drive north from OR TAMBO International Airport in Johannesburg.

The Area has a abundance of game estates. It is the Hunting Capital of South Africa.

We hunt 7-8 private game estates all ranging from 560 hectare to 4000 hectare totaling about 15000 hectares. Some of the game estates are our own, some we have concession leases to hunt on.

Our philosophy when it comes to hunting areas, is diversity. We utilize different estates that each offers something unique. Some farms have mountainous areas, most of them are bushveld (trees and shrubs) , some are along rivers, some are smaller but have a higher density of game to give clients more opportunities at a shot, than one would get on a 50000 hectare area.

The size of the hunting areas are a perfect balance between scenery, atmosphere, amenities, and provide frequent opportunities at game, with a good chance of success.

Our hunting areas provide clients with the whole spectrum of plains game for them to hunt. All of the animals are present on these estates with the exception of lion and elephant. It is also in these private estates that we get the opportunity to hunt the bigger wider spread buffalo. (40″ and up) as well as lion hunting.

Buffalo hunting

We offer buffalo hunts in our private hunting areas near Vaalwater.

It is in these herds that we offer more affordable buffalo hunts than in the Kruger Region, as well as the opportunity to hunt 40″- 47″ buffaloes that you are not allowed to hunt in the Kruger hunting area.

We also offer free range buffalo hunts in the Kruger region. Size limits, and strict terms apply. Please contact us for more info.

Hunting in the greater Kruger region offers the truest sense of hunting you can find in South Africa. Whatever you are after it stays a breathtaking experience.

For the purist this is truly the best place.
