Rietvlei Nature Reserve (South Africa)

Located on the outskirts of Pretoria, Rietvlei Nature Reserve is an ideal getaway for the entire family.

This beautiful 3 800 hectare Reserve surrounds the magnificent Rietvlei Dam.

Home to antelope, Eland, Zebra, Red Hartebeest, Springbok, Ostrich,Buffalo and White Rhino, Bushpig, as well as a number of Jackal, Mountain Reedbuck, Oribi, Grey Duiker, Steenbuck, Brown Hyena, Porcupine, Springhare, Aardwolf and Banded Mongoose.

The Reserve also offers an array of bird life along with South Africa’s national bird, the Blue Crane as well as the Secretary Bird and fish Eagles.

When you ready to escape the busy city life, Rietvlei Nature Reserve is waiting for you.

This Reserve in my opinion is one of the best I have had the pleasure of visiting in this beautiful city.
