About hunting in Eastern Cape
The country’s second largest province lies between the Indian Ocean and the Drakensberg Mountains. The dry semi-arid desert interior is known as the Karoo which in complete contrast gives way to the densely wooded valley bushveld, like the Addo Elephant National Park. The coastline is dominated by beautiful evergreen coastline plains, with magnificent beaches and the spectacular forests of the Garden Route and Tsitsikamma National Park.
Owing to this vast diversity of habitat it was once considered one of the county’s richest wildlife areas and severely over-hunted during colonial times. Much of the province’s former wildlife populations have been restored to their former glory days.
Buffalo and an assortment of general plains game can be hunted in the Eastern Cape. This includes some of South Africa’s specials, like the Eastern Cape Kudu, a regionalised species, slightly smaller both in body and horn length to their Greater Kudu relatives.
Two South African endemics occur in the area, namely the Grey Rhebuck, a mountain species often hunted in cold, windy and sometimes snowy conditions. These extremely weary animals, with their uncanny sixth sense are known for being the most challenging plains game hunt in the country. The other endemic species is the Cape Grysbok, a member of the “Tiny Ten”.
Generally speaking, hunting with dogs in South Africa is illegal. However, the tiny Blue Duiker may be hunted with specially trained Jack Russell Terriers. These animals are flushed by the dogs and shot on the run with a shotgun. Caracal (Lynx), an acknowledged stock farming problem predatory animal may also be hunted with hound packs, an experience as exciting as a Mountain Lion hunt in the USA. Specialised bird hunting outfitters with pointing and retrieving dogs offer some of the best upland (Greywing Francolin) and waterfowl shoots in the country.
Another unique hunt offered in this province is a Rhino Vita Dart Hunt. This is a non-lethal hunt conducted in conjunction with a veterinarian who is only permitted to tranquilize a Rhino for conservation, medical or management reasons. The client will then be able to dart the Rhino with a vitamin cocktail prior to the animal being completely immobilised and classified as a kill by SCI.
Threatened or Protected Species (TOPS) and CITES permits are required for some species even with an exemption permit. All the necessary documentation details will be provided by your Outfitter. Learn more about South African hunting regulations here.

I should have spent more time there. This was my fault and not the outfitter’s fault.

Eastern Cape Spiral-Horn Hunt
10.0
Lauren and Juan - owner
Jagdanbieter
We hunted with Juan and Lauren in early October 2025 after booking a 4-animal spiral-horn package. I am STILL excited a month later! This hunt was absolutely incredible! My initial package had included Waterbuck, Eland, Nyala, and Bushbuck. Additionally, we had expressed interest in taking Fallow Deer, Caracal, Bushpig, and Warthog. Ultimately, we took the Waterbuck, Nyala, Bushbuck, and Bushpig from the initial wishlist. We had solid opportunities at trophy Eland and Warthog, but weren't able to follow through. This was entirely on us and had nothing to do with the opportunities or trophy quality. Additionally, we were also able to take White Blesbuck, Black Springbuck, a gorgeous Lechwe and a Duiker when the opportunities for those animals presented. Juan and Lauren worked incredibly hard every single day to make sure that we had a world-class experience, and they succeeded across the board. The hunting was truly world-class. The accommodations at both concessions were incredible. The staff and lodge owners/managers were all very inviting. The meals were superb.......I am hopeful that I can hunt with them again in 2026. Thank you so much, LJ Safaris!
The fact that it ended. I felt like we were just getting warmed up!

Our privately owned hunting area is 25 000 Acres in one block with the a Boutique Lodge on site and a further 100 000 Acres of private concessions areas are available within an hour's drive of the preserve. Located in the mountains that form the interface between Valley Bushveld and Karoo veld types, are some of the most varied hunting areas in South Africa - from open Karoo plains to densely wooded mountain valleys with grass topped plateaus.
