Londolozi Private Game Reserve

Londolozi Private Game Reserve is a large game reserve, with 150 km2 (58 sq mi) of land in northeastern South Africa. This means 1 bed per 167 hectares of land. Londolozi Rangers are not bound by Kruger Park rules and can therefore drive off-road on safari and conduct comprehensive bush walks into the wilderness. The reserve is part of the Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve, situated on the western border of Kruger National Park, which together with some other parks make up the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park. Londolozi is a Zulu word meaning "Protector of all Living Things". Wildlife in this reserve includes the Big Five of Africa (lions, leopards, black rhinoceros, African bush elephant and African buffalo). The reserve was established in 1926 by Frank Unger and Charles Boyd Varty. The land, named Sparta Farm, was bought from Transvaal Consolidated Investments (TCI). Sparta was used as a hunting farm until 1971 when Charles Varty's two sons, Dave Varty and John Varty, shifted the focus of the property to ecotourism and photographic safaris instead of hunting. Londolozi is part of the GLTFCA - the Greater Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Association The game reserve has five camps situated next to each other along the banks of the Sand River. In 2014, Condé Nast Traveler readers voted Londolozi as the best hotel and resort in the world. The reserve has been lauded internationally for its far-sighted and progressive land and wildlife management, as well as its productive community involvement. In 1993, Londolozi became the first game reserve in the world to be accorded Relais & Châteaux status In 1992, Nelson Mandela visited Londolozi for a period following his release from prison.

Garies (Noord-Kaap)

Garies is een landbouwdorp gelegen in de gemeente Kamiesberg in de regio Namakwaland in de Zuid-Afrikaanse provincie Noord-Kaap. Het ligt ongeveer 110 km zuidelijk van Springbok, de belangrijkste stad van het district Namakwaland, en 46 km ten zuiden van Kamieskroon aan de voet van de Kamiesbergen. De nationale weg N7 doet Garies aan. Het dorp functioneert als regionaal dienstencentrum voor de streek met welvarende schapenboerderijen. Het heeft een hotel, een benzinestation en ook een lagere- en middelbare school. Garies heeft bekendheid verkregen door zakelijke bedrijvigheid van zijn bekendste inwoner, Adriaan Nieuwoudt. In de lente is het landschap rondom het dorp bedekt met een kleurrijke bloemenpracht. Hierdoor worden tijdens het seizoen talloze toeristen naar het dorp, wat dan als de "Poort naar Namakwaland" optreedt, gelokt met zijn bloemenfeest. Geschiedenis Het dorp is omstreeks 1845 gesticht op de grond van de boerderij "Goedverwagting", wat ook de eerste naam van het dorp was. De huidige naam is aan het dorp gegeven door de voormalige eerste minister van de Kaapkolonie: John X. Merriman. Deze naam is afkomstig van een Khoi-woord wat "kweekgras" betekent.. De Nederduits-Gereformeerde kerkgemeente is in 1904 van die moedergemeente Namakwaland afgesplitst.

Loskop Dam

Loskop Dam is a combined gravity and arch type dam located on the Olifants River, near Groblersdal, Mpumalanga, South Africa. It was established in 1939 and has been renovated in 1979. The dam is situated in the Loskop Dam Nature Reserve and it serves mainly for irrigation purposes. The hazard potential of the dam has been ranked high (3). History A popular vacation spot that irrigates the majority of the Bushveld, the Loskop Dam was first proposed in 1905 and started as a private cooperative scheme by landowners along the Olifants in 1930, but officially only endorsed by the government in 1934. In 1939, the project was completed under the auspices of the Department of Irrigation (today's Department of Environmental Affairs) at the cost of R5 million, employing among others Willem J. Grobler, on whose Klipbank Farm his namesake town of Groblersdal was founded in 1938 as the canal network's hub. The scheme stretches 64 km to the north of this town, including 148 km on 2 main pipes and 330 km of branch lines irrigating 19,000 ha; 250 km of drainage canals return excess water from farm to river. Most Loskop farms use sprinklers, but a growing portion use central pivot irrigation. An innovative feature of the dam is the use of "breakers," 6-m-high structures above the walls that divert floodwaters into colliding streams called "heavy rain" with less destructive potential. 650 farms covering around 25.7 ha each use the water, including a small proportion originally reserved for the elderly and disabled. The subtropical climate supports the growth of many crops, but summer tobacco and cotton and winter wheat are the main standbys, as well as table grapes and vegetables on a smaller scale. On March 6, 1940, the Transvaal Provincial Council established a nature reserve in the area, a popular angling spot for Mozambique tilapia, redbreast tilapia, yellowfish, carp, mudfish, and eel. Boasting a modern RV park and extensive recreational facilities, the reserve covers 12,700 ha. Large game has been bred there since 1948 - indeed, a breeding pair of white rhinoceros were brought there in 1963 to bear a calf there on April 11, 1964, returning the species to the area after its extinction in the Transvaal in 1896. The reserve also features other types of rhinoceros, ostriches, leopard, giraffes, blue wildebeest, zebra, among others.
