Ecology

Wildlife & Nature is at the forefront of what we do

Summerplace is nestled in a stunning natural setting and is dedicated to preserving and enhancing the surrounding ecology.

Roan Antelope

We are specifically focused on Roan Antelope conservation and breeding. Our good balance of Sweet and Sour Veld makes Summerplace an ideal location for this threatened antelope species. A new bull has recently arrived.

Marlothii

Naturally occurring Aloe (Marlothy) can be found throughout our reserve, including Aloe forests through which some of our trails pass. Aloe is also the emblem on our Summerplace Game Reserve logo.

Eco Balance

We are committed to creating as balanced an ecosystem as possible at Summerplace. This sees us carefully managing our vegetation and animals (numbers and species) in conjunction with an ecologist.

Indigenous Flora

Our ongoing project to rid Summerplace of alien plants such as Queen of the Night , Fire Bush and Bankrupt Bush is enabling the gradual restoration of indigenous plants and trees to the Waterberg Biosphere.
