Hunt With Purpose

What we do today,
matters tomorrow

Our ultimate goal is to witness a flourishing and safe rhino population, unshackled from the severe threat of poaching.

Every activity at Rockwood contributes to rhino conservation.

We apply bold and unorthodox strategies to protect our rhinos. While it's a far cry from how they would live in the wild, free from human interference, this is how we safeguard their future. Having gone over a decade without a single poaching incident, our track record clearly speaks for itself.
OUR APPROACH

Wouldn't it be great to
not have to save the rhino?

LIVE FOR A CHANGE

Your safari provides crucial resources to maintain the conservation of one of the world's most endangered species: The Southern White Rhino.

BE THE CHANGE

We invite wildlife enthusiasts and ethically-minded hunters to join us on an exhilarating, luxury African odyssey.

A GLIMPSE INTO OUR WORLD

We practice ethical and sustainable hunting to support rhino conservation.

HUNT FOR A CHANGE

Feel your innate instinct awaken when you experience the hunt as the trophy. Led by the principle of fair chase, our local professional hunters skillfully guide rifle and bow hunters alike.

PACKAGES

Our standard hunting packages conveniently offer a selection of trophy animals at a fixed rate – including the day fees, accommodation, all meals, and extras.

We can also compile a personalised package to suit your exact needs around game preferences, hunting experience, and your individual family / group requirements.
HUNTING OPTIONS >

RHINO DART HUNT

Rhino darting is a unique activity that requires you to get daringly close to a dangerous animal. Also called 'green hunting' or 'vita-dart', this exhilarating quest will test your courage and elevate the adrenaline.

As part of hunting for conservation, animals are earmarked for specific purposes – never for commercial purposes alone.
RHINO DART >

Hunt Your Way

Apart from rhinos, we offer a variety of wild game for the hunt.

We invite ethical, conservation-minded hunters to test their skill by hunting any way they choose. We offer traditional rifle hunting, as well as bow hunting safaris and hunting from horseback. From rhinos to Cape Buffalo and various plains game, such as Sable, Roan and Kudu, we guarantee you’ll find the trophy you’ve been aiming for.
