About this hunt
This concession has various vegetation types and terrains, ranging from open plains to thick coastal bush. The areas are generally smaller in size, but mainly with only low cattle fences. The thick bush makes the hunt of the coastal species very challenging. Our lodge is comfortable with breathtaking views, and great meals, where venison/game meat is a speciality. Here we mainly hunt the species that are very specific to this area namely the bushbuck, blue duiker, greysbuck, caracal with dogs, Nyala, Oribi, bushpig over bait and others. To get here you would fly to Jhg, then take a connecting flight to Port Elizabeth where we would transfer an hour to the lodge.
