Hluhluwe Game Reserve

At Hluhluwe an asphalted road branches off N 2 and comes in 15km/9mi to the main entrance of Hluhluwe Game Reserve. It can also be reached from R 618 on a track which goes off on the right 17km/11mi beyond Mtubatuba.

With an area of only 230sq.km/89sq.mi, the Hluhluwe reserve is less than half the size of the Umfolozi reserve. The landscape, too, is different: it is hilly country which, particularly to the north and along the rivers, is densely wooded, with a distinctly tropical feel.

The reserve can be explored by car on a 40km/25mi network of tracks.
