Farm in THABAZIMBI

Whilst in private ownership for the past 25-years, this 514Ha game farm is a secluded inner farm, located roughly 320km from Pretoria and 100km from Thabazimbi on the banks of the Matlabas river in the Limpopo Province.

Topography is mainly flat with typical sweetveld grazing enhanced by beautiful Camelthorn trees and thick sandy terrain under foot.

Although the Matlabas River does not retain its water throughout the year in certain sections such as this area, the more than 1km river frontage remains a magical attraction for humans as well as animals, attracting frequent visits from a wide spectrum of mammals, reptiles, and predators alike. The unmistakable call of fish-eagles announces their presence too, creating a haven to be enjoyed as only mother nature can provide.
