Non-Invasive
Our rhinos undergo routine checkups. We align your dart hunting experience with their healthcare schedule.
Valuable Funding
Your experience directly supports the costly task of conserving our herd of 400+ Southern White Rhinos.
You will be hosted by reserve owners, Wicus and Yvette Diedericks, at our five-star luxury lodge.
Rockwood is situated in the sparsely populated and malaria-free Northern Cape Province of South Africa.
This area is known for its historical significance, diamonds, and cultural diversity.
Guests are treated to gourmet local cuisine and outstanding South African wines, whilst experiencing warm local hospitality.
Hunt Like Nowhere Else in Africa
Authentic Hunting Experience
Limited targeted rhino hunting on our reserve helps to advance demographic and genetic conservation goals, by addressing the problems of excess males, high population densities, and inbreeding.
This valuable additional revenue stream helps to cover rhino conservation costs.
A rhino hunt is truly an experience of a lifetime – with significant conservation value and socio-economic impact.
If you wish to experience a hunt unlike any other, while contributing to the cause, then this is the experience for you.
