Garden Route Game Lodge adheres to optimal conservation practices to create a balanced eco-system. Guests are not allowed to drive through the park in their own vehicles.

The Garden Route Game Lodge is home to many permanent and migratory bird species which are best viewed on foot and identifiable by the game rangers. Visitors will enjoy the large variety of fynbos and other plant species on the reserve.
