Embrace remote Kalahari living among sweeping red dunes and productive grazing lands, minutes from R360/Upington — includes a 2,000ha game camp and practical outbuildings.
Located east of the R360 en route from Upington to Askham and the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, this impressive 12,001-hectare farm (LSU 1:20) lies in the heart of the sought-after Kalahari region. Known for its sweeping red dunes, open grass plains, and hardy natural vegetation, the area is ideally suited to sustainable livestock and game farming.
The farm is conveniently situated just 5 km from the main road, ensuring excellent accessibility. It is well developed and divided into 26 camps, laid out in a practical 4-camp grazing system that supports effective veld management.
A reliable water supply is provided via the Kalahari-West pipeline, with three main water entry points feeding the entire farm and ensuring sufficient water at all drinking points — a valuable asset in this arid environment.
The veld is of high quality, featuring sought-after grass species such as Stipagrostis ciliata, Stipagrostis obtusa, and Stipagrostis uniplumis, complemented by Grey Camelthorn, Shepherd trees, and young Camelthorn trees. These conditions make the farm particularly suitable for Dorper sheep and cattle production. Rolling red dunes covered in nutritious grasses create both a productive and visually striking landscape, ideal for quality red meat farming.
A dedicated game camp of approximately 2,000 hectares is securely enclosed with game fencing. Currently no game on the farm.
Boundary fencing is in excellent condition, with three sides jackal-proofed and the remaining side fitted with stock fencing. Improvements include a modest homestead with a small, restorable house, as well as a large 20 m x 15 m storage shed with a cement floor, suitable for equipment and feed storage.
Offered as a going concern, this farm represents an outstanding investment opportunity in the Kalahari.
