The reserve covers 1400 hectares stocked with a variety of game including Buffalo, Giraffe, Kudu, Nyala, Impala, Warthog, Bushbuck, Zebra, Blue wildebeest, Red- and Grey Duiker and other small game species.

The superbly appointed lodge is situated in the centre of the reserve, and is surrounded by lush bushveld. There are six different suites to choose from at Belvedere Game Ranch, each one is en-suite and tastefully decorated.

The Lodge has a self-catering central kitchen, however full catering is also available. The family room has a private kitchenette and braai area.

Besides the kitchen area, the main lodge also has a lounge, bar and dining area where you can sit back and relax outside of your room during your stay. Sip on a sundowner at the “preekstoel” lookout point, as you take in the views of the natural surroundings.

A plunge pool is available for you to use at your leisure; a great way to cool down during those scorching summer days. For those who enjoy getting a tan or soaking up some sun, there are lounger chairs available.

Among the wide variety of activities you can enjoy on the farm, Belvedere offers a one-of-a-kind mountain biking experience along the Zulu Kingdom Trails.
