Visitors to the game reserve can choose to head out on a guided game drive in an open safari vehicle. During these excursions, trained and highly qualified guides will lead you through the African bush, introducing you not only to the game animals that abound but also teaching you about the landscape and vegetation found in the area. Visitors can also arrange for a 'hop-on' guide who will join you in your vehicle and guide you through the reserve.
Guests with a minor level of experience in horse riding can enjoy a two hour morning or afternoon guided horse ride through the Nyathi area of the game reserve where they may be able to spot large game animals including Kudu and Hartebeest. Alternatively 1 - 3, 5 hour or overnight horse riding excursions can be arranged through the Zuurberg Mountains where guests can enjoy excellent views of the reserve and the mountains.
Guests wanting to stretch their legs and enjoy the fresh air can embark on the Tree Dassie Trail walk. Named after the rare Tree Dassie that is found within the Alexandria forest area of the reserve, the trail offers excellent bird watching opportunities and species such as Crowned Hornbills, Black Headed Oriole and Olive Woodpeckers are often spotted or heard.
The 45 kilometre (28 mile) 4X4 trail between Kabouga and Darlington is graded 2 -3 and takes visitors through an area of the reserve that was once the scene of fierce clashes between the British and the Afrikaners during the Anglo-Boer war. The route travels through a number of different vegetation areas providing spectacular scenery.
