A Short History of Wildehondekloof Private Game Reserve:

Wildehondekloof Western Cape Lodge was bought in 1996 as a barren farm without any fencing, roads, or infrastructure.

The construction of the facilities and managers’ quarters commenced in 2002 and simultaneously the idea of constructing the lodge utilizing the existing building was born.

During the construction of this Oudtshoorn Lodge, it became clear that the current building would not suffice, and the planning of the current Oudtshoorn Wildehondekloof Lodge started, which resulted in the magnificent 9 luxurious en–-suites rooms.

The lodge became a landmark with nature lovers, both from South Africa and abroad. 

In 2005, a breeding herd of seven Eland was purchased, as the first introduced animals delivered to Wildehondekloof.

The new Eland complimented the existing animals, consisting of Vaalribbok, Klipspringer, duiker, grysbok, Kudu, porcupine, honey badger, baboons, leopard, jackals, and caracal.

Since then more Eland, Kudu, Gemsbok, Red Hartebeest, Blue Wildebeest, Black Wildebeest, Nyala, Zebra, Blesbok, Impala, Cape Mountain Zebra, Giraffe, and Springbok have been introduced.
