Restoring the rhythm of the wild

Restoring the rhythm of the wild

Rewilding is the large-scale restoration of a damaged ecosystem, essentially reinstating natural biological processes so the environment regains its original characteristics.

At Few & Far Luvhondo, we’re currently rehabilitating 30 000 hectares of degraded habitat in the Soutpansberg mountains, driving towards our ultimate 50-year goal to protect 100 000 hectares.

Creating space for biodiversity

We drop internal barriers to reopen ancient migration corridors. Our field teams combat the severe threat of alien vegetation, manually clearing impenetrable thickets that choke native flora and drain scarce groundwater.

This vital clearing work creates immediate space for indigenous biodiversity. We drive a massive reforestation programme, planting seven species of native trees to anchor the topsoil and revive ancient grasslands. As the natural flora recovers, the wildlife follows. Herbivores return to new grazing grounds, which in turn supports our apex predators.

This is a 50-year commitment to ecological regeneration. 

Navigate the reserve with our conservationists to remove invasive saplings, plant baobab seedlings and monitor the return of endangered species.
