What To Do! Situated on nearly 4000 hectares of former farmland, Bushman Sands Game Reserve offers malaria free sightings of a large variety of animal species. Working with the conservation team of the award-winning Shamwari Game Reserve, Bushman Sands has reintroduced indigenous animals that once roamed freely over 200 years ago to their natural habitat, and is working towards the restoration of the environment to its natural state. The Africa of a bygone era is further recaptured by the Bushman paintings some of which are accessible in the reserve and can be viewed on request. Dating back thousands of years, these rock art paintings ensure that the cultural legacy of the Khoi San people remains for years to come.Another unique feature is the massive 200ha New Years Dam in the heart of the reserve. Originally built as a source of water for the steam trains, the dam now sustains the wildlife in the arid Eastern Cape landscape.Interesting features on game drives include the historical site of the Battle of Death valley and the Sunset cruises on the New Years Dam |
