Views extend across the river and mountains, with designated camping pitches. Fishing from the camp is one of the main activities, along a 25 km stretch that winds along the edge of the reserve. Canoeing and guidance by a local guide complete the picture.

The two self-catering houses provide a comfortable base facing the river, while the camp focuses on proximity to the water and banks. Largemouth yellowfish fishing draws visitors to 25 km of river, with a guide who can lead you to the best spots. Canoeing lets you glide along the Orange, with views of the river and striking landforms.

Good to know

Best time to visit

By the Orange, plan fishing and canoeing for early morning or late in the day, and bring water, a hat, and quick-drying clothes. Spend midday in the shade facing the river, taking the water level into account.

Stay advice

Coordinate fishing spots and canoe trips with the local guide, and specify your level of self-sufficiency between the house and camping options and your interest in yellowfish.
