Local Attractions
Did you know that SanWild is not only home to an elephant graveyard but also amazing hand-excavated gold mines dating from over 130 years ago?
SanWild is centrally located in one of South Africa’s most scenic and popular tourist hot spots. It makes an ideal base for exploring many attractions, either as a daytrip or an overnight outing, on your own or as a group. We are more than happy to arrange these tours for our guests and volunteers.
(Please note that these activities can be arranged on request and are offered separately through third party service providers. They are not included in our accommodation or volunteer program fees.)
