Lifestyle Farm - Patensie (CRRG-PF285)

This property is situated North West of Patensie, and is in very close proximity to both the Baviaanskloof Mega Reserve and the Stinkhoutberg Nature Reserve. Comprising two titles, the property is approximately 285 ha (125ha + 160ha) in extent.

The entire property is comprised of the facing halves of 2 opposing ridges and the entire valley in between. The valley floor is home to numerous large forest tree species like yellowwoods. With the exception of some fencing and a few access roads the property is entirely as God made it, with no evidence of any other man made infrastructure. With a total 180m variance in altitude from the valley floor to the top of the ridges, the topography is spectacularly dramatic, with breathtaking views into the Baviaanskloof and particularly of Cockscomb Peak to the north and panoramic views over the Citrus basin of Patensie to the south.
Veld types
Virtually the entire property is covered with the thick Uitenhage valley bushveld that is common to the Southern slopes of the Baviaans Range. Towards the top there was a good density of wild olive and on the Northern slopes, a healthy covering of spekboom.

Rainfall
The farm falls in a transition rainfall area, with an annual average of approximately 480mm / annum.
Game species
haven for bushbuck, which occur here at an exceptionally high density. There was a lot of evidence of bushpig and common duiker. Trek kudu’s. Baboons are also abundant in the area.
Water
