Ranch Activities
Embrace the way of the pioneers who came before us. Hunting, horseback safaris, fishing, shooting and just about any adventure you could imagine is available on the Berchtesgaden Game Ranch. It is here where men and women, boys and girls, get to “let go” and experience the outdoors as if it is your own.
Hunting Safaris
Hunting is a tradition engraved in our DNA. An extremely rich history born from the giants of a bygone era on whose shoulders we stand today. At Berchtesgaden we aim to carry forward this tradition by going over and beyond what you have come to expect. With the beautifully preserved habitat, knowledgeable field guides, luxurious amenities, flawless facilities and warm hospitality you are guaranteed to have just discovered your new favourite hunting grounds. Your home away from home.
Marksman's Nest
This is where firearm enthusiasts are likely to spend most of their time. From setting your sights on targets at 300 meters and making clays fall from the sky to making our rapid-fire disc gongs sing a metal-on-metal song, you will have no shortage of things to shoot at. All this will be from our safe and comfortable shooting cabin dubbed the Marksman's Nest. This is a great place to spend some time, Braai & practise your various shooting styles.
Wellness Centre
Located at the main lodge, overlooking the waterhole where animals tend to gather, is our well-equipped wellness centre. It is here where body treatments can be booked and enjoyed in our private therapy room, or if the urge for a good workout session is present, the adjacent gym will be open 24/7 with all the essential exercise equipment you might need.
Horseback Safaris
What better way to explore the mesmerizing Waterberg bushveld and mountains than being one with nature on the back of your trusty steed. Choose to explore Berchtesgaden on a short ride or explore far and wide on a horseback adventure. Experience the calmness that comes with riding horseback as the wild game embrace their four-legged friends.
Fishing Excursions
Whether you are an avid fisherman, or an occasional line-thrower, fishing at Berchtesgaden promises to be a fun pastime. Upon request your activity concierge will pack you a cold cooler, ready the rods, fetch fresh bait and set you up on the best spot at our fishing pond. Should you prefer to go for the big ones, a fishing trip can be arranged to the nearby Hans Strijdom Dam.
