Home Activities Accommodation Hunting Gallery Contact Details

RIBBOK VALLEY LODGE offers the opportunity for exclusive hunting within the Eastern Cape Provincial Hunting Season. Various antelope species, including kudu, blue wildebeest, impala, bushbuck, mountain rhebuck, vaal rhebuck, fallow deer and springbok inhabit an area in excess of nearly 4,000 hectares in size. Various other game species, such as baboon, lynx, black-backed jackal, warthog and bush pig are also indigenous to the region.

Hunt excursions will consist of a maximum of six hunters accompanied by appointed guides. Both local- and international trophy hunters, as well as venison hunters, are welcome. Accomodation for hunters is on the farm in our comfortable lodge, with catered meals and a cleaning service available on request. A 4-wheel drive vehicle will be used to transport hunters to and from hunting areas, and our large cold-room may be utilised to work your meat. Caping and taxidermy will be arranged on request (rates too be discussed).
