The Dinokeng
Game Reserve is the first free-roaming Big 5 residential game reserve in
Gauteng – and probably in the world – next to an urbanized area. It is a
private/public initiative for which planning and development started in the
early 2000’s. It was officially opened on 22 September 2011 after the
introduction of four of the Big 5. The last of the Big 5 to be introduced in
late 2012 were the Buffalo and they have settled in well.
The sunrises
and sunsets are spectacular and the game viewing – either from a game viewer or
from your restaurant table overlooking one of the dams – is diverse.
Close to
Pretoria North, just over an hour from Oliver Tambo International and Lanseria
airport, and approximately 25 minutes from Wonderboom airport the DGR is
accessible for a weekend stay without having to travel too far.
The Wildlife
at Dinokeng Nature Reserve is something to experience, and what better way than
going on a Game Drive. This is where the appreciation for the bushveld and
nature starts, and where breathtaking experiences are captured with
photographs.
Animals include
- Elephants
- Lions
- Zebra
- Rhinos
- Giraffes
- Various buck species
