Reserves and Wildlife Home Page

Durban and its surrounding areas boast a number of small to medium-sized nature reserves.

At first these appear to be simply green islands in the urban landscape, but some of the larger reserves (such as Silverglen and Stainbank) offer surprising accessibility to African wildlife within the city limits. Large fauna include vervet monkeys, several buck species and even zebra. Additional attractions include tours, walks and community projects such as the Sangoma (witch doctor) training facility at Silverglen.

If you want to see the Big Five you have come to the right place. We have lots of beautiful game reserves in KwaZulu-Natal.
