Avontuur Nature Reserve
Visit the biodiversity gem of the north Bokkeveld plateau. The Renosterveld and Fynbos ecosystems of the 1 600 ha Avontuur Nature Reserve hosts many spectacular endemic species in a beautiful landscape that holds many rewards for those willing to take the time to explore its secrets.
Three hiking trails lead the visitor into the Fynbos, Tillite Renosterveld and Dolerite Renosterveld ecosystems. A map will be provided with your permit when you visit the Reserve.
A free guided tour departing from the Avontuur Office is offered to permit holders every Saturday at 14:00 in the spring flower season.
