This farm borders directly onto the Baviaanskloof Mega Reserve. The property is accessed via a gravel road requiring some maintenance and a vehicle with good ground clearance (bakkie etc). This property falls in an area which is perhaps one of the last few stretches of pristine Eastern Cape wilderness outside of the Baviaanskloof. Despite its relative close proximity to the urban centres of Uitenhage and Port Elizabeth, it remains secluded due to the towering Groot Winterhoek Mountains and surrounding foothills. The surrounding topography is as dramatic as it comes, with a series of deep drainage lines with streams and cliff faces interspersed with elevated ridges and flat well grassed plateaus. There are no through roads as this farm is the end user of a road which passes through another 3 farms meaning that the 247ha farm is very private. The stock fencing is mostly in a fair condition. Wildlife Species include: Kudu (transient), Bushbuck, Mt. Reedbuck, Klipspringer, Grysbok, Bush Pig, Cape Mountain Leopard as well as other smaller mammals. Bird species of special interest include Cape rock-jumper, Orange-breasted Sunbird, as well as Black and Martial Eagle and various other birds of prey. This farm is ecologically diverse consisting mainly of the grassy fynbos biome associated with the sour, elevated soils on the ridges, and then small pockets of subtropical thicket biome in the lower lying valleys, and the grassland biome occurs on the foothills and valley floors. What is rather special regarding this farm is that in addition to the sour veld it also has isolated pockets of sweet veld as is evident in the healthy stands of Sweet Thorn which act as a magnate to Kudus from the surrounding area. True wilderness in Africa is becoming an increasingly rare commodity and here we have a wilderness area within a 100km distance of Port Elizabeth. The property offers absolute solitude, unparalleled privacy and all of this at an affordable price.
