The oldest game reserve in Africa, Groenkloof Nature Reserve is a green oasis just 4km from the city centre. Giraffe, zebra, blue wildebeest, ostrich, kudu, sable, impala and red hartebeest are just some of the species that roam the place. Because there aren't any dangerous animals, visitors are able to walk in the park. Groenkloof has more than 17km of hiking trails, a 14km 4x4 trail, 20km of mountain biking trails, overnight facilities and a picnic area.
