Cape Vulture Nature Reserve
Where steep cliffs touch the sky lies a place that preserves more than just nature. It nurtures communities, plants knowledge, and lets hope take root — for vultures, for people, and for the earth beneath our feet. Everyone who comes here becomes part of a story that protects species, sows a future, and teaches us to tread lightly on this land.
Nestled against the dramatic backdrop of the Manutsa mountains, our 1,800-hectare reserve safeguards South Africa’s third-largest breeding colony of the vulnerable Cape vulture — while creating opportunities for both people and the wild.
Just an eco safari lodge
At Cape Vulture Nature Reserve, every sunrise brings hope for endangered species, fertile soil and thriving local communities. With every stay, you help us protect fragile habitats, share knowledge that inspires change, and create new opportunities where they are needed most. Our three pillars — Conservation, Education, and Employment — turn your visit into something far bigger: a place where nature is protected, futures are sown, and communities grow strong together.
As a sustainable leader in eco-tourism, conservation is at the forefront of everything we do.
Education at Cape Vulture means learning from the land and each other. From living classrooms to hands-on workshops, we grow understanding and inspire new ways to care for nature
At Cape Vulture Nature Reserve, employment is more than a job—it is a pathway to belonging, growth, and shared purpose.
