Hunt Your Way

Your Ultimate African Adventure

There's so much more to hunting than the mere sport. There's a richness of culture – a sense of tradition, which you simply won't find anywhere else.

We invite ethical, conservation-minded hunters to come experience this exhilaration at Rockwood, whether via traditional rifle hunting, bow hunting, on foot or hunting from horseback.

As an alternative to rhino hunting, rhino darting is a unique activity that requires you to get daringly close to a dangerous animal. Also called 'green hunting' or 'vita-dart', it'll test your courage and elevate the adrenaline as much as a real rhino hunt.

Every activity at Rockwood contributes to funding the maintenance and conservation of our Southern White Rhino population.

Come hunt with purpose.


Awaken Your Instincts

Wild At Heart

Rockwood is more than a game reserve. It’s an adrenaline-fuelled exploration into the quintessence of the African wild.

Our private rhino reserve is home to 430+ rhinos in the middle of an untainted stretch of semi-arid desert and bushveld – exactly the habitat that rhinos would have roamed for millennia.

Cast your gaze over infinite horizons. Soak up the sapphire sky. Enliven your soul next to glittering embers from the fire, while resting under a blissful ceiling of starry serenity.

Once you arrive, a part of you never leaves.

Uniting Hunting & Conservation

What we do today,
matters tomorrow

Our ultimate goal is to witness a flourishing and safe rhino population, unshackled from the severe threat of poaching.

We apply bold and unorthodox strategies to protect our rhinos. While it's a far cry from how they would live in the wild, free from human interference, this is how we safeguard their future. Having gone over a decade without a single poaching incident, our track record clearly speaks for itself.

We don't breed to hunt. We hunt to protect.
