Poplars Farmhouse
"Wow, what an amazing place. Absolutely everything was fantastic. Electric blankets and heaters in every room. Fireplaces with plenty of wood. Coffee machine and plunger. Nevermind Koos who fixed our puncture with a smile. I could spend a month here, so beautiful." - Lynette, Tripadvisor Review

Sounds of the South African Shelduck in the Karoo. An interesting species that build their nests in sand dunes, Aardvark burrows, or rough ground! The South African Shelduck is one of only two bird species that have the prefix 'South African' in the name, as they are endemic to our country and can't be found anywhere else!

Sneeuberg Rains
On the night of the 7th of April, parts of the reserve had 100mm of rain. It's not lost on us that this was the same night as the Eclipse! We are incredibly grateful for this much-needed rain which should see us through to spring.

Bucketlist destination…
I thought. I dreamed. I slept. I looked. I read.
I walked. I listened. I heard. I saw. I breathed.
I embraced.
My soul speaks here.

Clearing the Reserve of old wires
Our team is hard at work clearing the Reserve of old wire, remnants of 100 years of farming on the land. Wires are often stuck between bushes, posing a threat to our Nguni and indigenous wildlife.
This forms part of our continuous effort to make the Reserve safer for all of us. Learn more about our conservation efforts here: https://www.sneeuberg.com/pages/conservation/

Keeping Our Birds Safer at Sneeuberg
Sound on. 🔉
The reflective bird flight divertors on our power lines light up at night to prevent birds, mainly Blue Crane and Vultures, from flying in to them. This helps us make our Reserve safer for these birds, an important part of the Karoo ecosystem.

A visit to Sneeuberg wouldn’t be complete without a tour through the art and artefacts that line the walls and ceilings of each cottage.
Pictured here is some of our curated collection captured by @ada_vis on a recent visit.
At Sneeuberg, we believe the art within should be as magnificent as the views without. Find out more about our cottages here: www.sneeuberg.com/

A glimpse into the vistas on display when you walk the Karoo.
Pack your camera and some hardy footwear, and embark on a hike where the most challenging part is not inclines or steep descents – it's having to return home once you’ve taken in a dose of the Karoo’s expansive views.
