Webinar Recording: Babanango Game Reserve – Safari in the Heart of Zululand
Babanango Game Reserve is KwaZulu-Natal’s largest privately owned game reserve and one of Southern Africa’s most ambitious rewilding projects. Spanning over 20,000 hectares within the dramatic upper White Umfolozi River Valley, the malaria-free reserve is home to the Big Five, diverse birdlife and breathtaking landscapes of rugged mountains and tranquil valleys. Rich in Zulu heritage and ancient geology, Babanango offers exceptional safari experiences led by expert guides, including game drives and guided bush encounters. Guests can also explore nearby historic battlefields such as Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift.
