Premier African Trophy Destination

Kalahari Hunting Safari

Overview

Discover the wild, untamed beauty of the South African Kalahari—an exclusive hunting destination just 12 miles from the Botswana border and 137 miles from Vryburg. Nestled on a remote 5,000-acre concession in the North West Province, our Kalahari lodge offers rifle and bow hunters a uniquely immersive safari experience.

This breathtaking red-sand region is home to 18 freely roaming plains game species, expansive camelthorn tree savannas, and some of the clearest starlit skies in Africa. Whether you’re tracking sable, kudu, or gemsbok by day or sitting fireside under the Milky Way at night, the Kalahari captures the spirit of true African wilderness.

Guests enjoy the comfort of a luxury thatched-roof lodge while pursuing game on foot, from blinds, or via guided vehicle stalks. Photographic safaris are also available for non-hunters. For eligible international hunters, the area even offers the opportunity to pursue the majestic African lion, subject to permit regulations.

Seclusion, silence, and raw natural beauty make the Kalahari an unforgettable hunting destination for those seeking a genuine African adventure.
