Kameelhoek, “camel corner” in English – tells a unique story of a tract of land, over 10 thousand hectares, 25 km south of Kimberley, South Africa.
In truth, Kameelhoek combines three distinguishable landscapes into one. From an old age Camelthorn forest after which it was named, to open grasslands and rocky hills.
It is a tough and resilient region,
truly African in its ability to survive.
Since 2018 Kameelhoek has become a site of renovation and ecosystem rejuvenation. The beauty of the natural landscape has resurfaced during cleanup and rehabilitation operations. Ongoing management efforts have stimulated the restoration of ecosystem functioning, along with the improvement of natural habitat for a variety of plant and animal species.
Many of these species are now able to increase their population numbers as a newly adopted management approach pursues the stabilisation of natural ecosystems.
