Game drives
Game drives give you the opportunity to explore larger areas of the reserve and discover some of the region's more than 40 mammal species and 300 bird species. These include giraffes, rhinos, buffaloes, zebras, and sable antelopes. The tours take place in the morning or afternoon, often with sundowners at a scenic viewpoint. In the evenings, night safaris are also offered, giving you the chance to spot more elusive animals such as brown hyenas, aardvarks, porcupines, and occasionally leopards. Game drives can also be combined with a shorter bush walk.
Bush walks
For those who wish to experience the reserve on foot, guided bush walks offer the chance to get truly close to nature. Together with experienced guides, you will learn to recognise animal tracks, understand wildlife behaviour, and discover details that are easily overlooked from horseback or a safari vehicle. There may even be the opportunity to approach white rhinos under controlled conditions. The walks are tailored to the participants' preferences and can range from leisurely strolls to more active treks through hilly terrain.
Family safari
Children are warmly welcome at Ant Africa Safaris, where activities are tailored to age and experience. Ponies are available for both beginners and experienced riders, with opportunities for led pony rides and riding lessons. Children can also join game drives and bush walks, where they can learn about animals, tracks, and nature. Other activities include archery, fishing, and swimming in the pool, while meals can be tailored to the family's needs. Children up to the age of 11 must always be accompanied by an adult during activities.
Mountain bike
For those who want to be more active, there are mountain bike trails through the varied terrain of the reserve. You often cycle parallel to the wildlife, and the routes range from shorter 5 km rides to more technical 20 km tracks.
Fishing
During the summer months, guests can accompany staff to one of the reserve's ponds to fish for bream and bass. It is a tranquil activity enjoyed by both children and adults, and works well as a break between riding sessions or game drives.
Trail running
For runners, there is an opportunity to venture into the bush together with a guide. Routes are tailored to the level, pace, and condition of the day, providing a completely different way to experience the terrain than from the saddle or a vehicle. A great option for those who want to stay active during their travels.
Non-riders
Ant Africa Safaris is just as suited for non-riders as it is for riders. Whether you want to walk, cycle, go on game drives, fish, train, swim, or just relax, there is a wide range of activities to choose from. No one needs to compromise to have a full safari experience.
