Outdoor lovers will love time spent in the wild beauty of the Eastern Cape. The fact that Eastern Cape game reserves are malaria free add to their popularity. The Glen Harry Game Reserve is a secluded property where Greater Kudu, Cape Eland, Red Haartebeest, Oryx (Gemsbuck), Burchells Zebra, Black Wildebeest, Impala, Springbuck, Mountain Reedbuck and Blesbuck roam.
They offer a choice of standard hunting packages, but they also tailor hunting safaris to suit clients requirements.. Check their website for taxidermy services etc.
The lovely accommodation at Glen Harry is located in a secluded valley and caters for a maximum of only six guests at any one time in order to enhance the exclusivity of the guests’ experience.
They offer three en-suite guest cottages which have been built from rock and other natural materials in order for guests to fully experience the atmosphere of the bush and nature. The dining lapa is close to the three cottages and dinners are served around an open campfire.

The Eastern Cape is a nature-lover’s paradise, from the lush Tsitsikamma forests to the wide-open spaces of the arid Great Karoo.The Eastern Cape is also malaria-free which makes it a particularly popular hunting destination. Wolf’s Crag offers hunting throughout the year, but it’s the the milder months from April to October that you get the best hunting.
A total of 22 species are available for hunting on Wolf’s Crag and clients may also hunt mountain species in the Sneeuberg Mountains of the Karoo, and overnight in Graaff-Reinet.
All hunting is done by walk and stalk, and all clients are guided by a professional hunter. Trophies are maintained in the highest quality until ready for processing by skilled taxidermists. See their trophy packages on their website. Clients are accommodated in spacious and well-appointed 1820 settler-style cottages that are en-suite and electrified.
Add to that delicious and wholesome cuisine of local venison, beef, lamb and chicken which one can relish with fine South African wines.

In 1847 the citizens of the town established a public library, and although lack of funds hindered the growth of the library, it developed over the years into the town’s cultural centre.
By 1878 the southern wing was added and in 1926 the northern wing was added on the site of the old branddam.
A modern library was built in Parsonage Street in 1981, and the Municipality donated the old building to the Graaff-Reinet Museum which houses specialized collections. It was proclaimed a National Monument in 1987.
Some of their services:
- Museum Shop
- Africana Library
- Conference Facility
- Guided Tours
- Educational tours
- Second hand books for sale
