Watch rare vultures from a hide
Drakensberge, South Africa
At the hide near Underberg you watch endangered Bearded vultures and Cape vultures in their natural habitats.
What you can experience here
Looking for an intense nature experience in the southern Drakensberg? Just a few kilometres from Underberg you can see rare vultures at very close range. Here, at a vulture-safe feeding site in the UNESCO Maloti-Drakensberg area, you encounter hands-on species conservation and a network of dedicated partners working together.
In the comfortable hide with panoramic views, Bearded vultures and Cape vultures are waiting to be watched – sometimes jackals, eagles or the secretarybird also drop by. Thanks to the single glazing you can take photos without reflections. While you watch the animals, you can use the materials provided to find out more about protecting these endangered species and why their work as ‘nature’s cleaners’ is so important.
