Beschreibung
Rietvlei Nature Reserve is on the outskirts of Pretoria as well as being within easy reach of Johannesburg. Though relatively small (only about 4000 hectares) it has a variety of birding habitats, lots of plains game and even some buffalo and cheetah.
This is mainly a grassland reserve set around a dam. A couple of small koppies add additional wooded areas, resulting a a surprisingly varied bird list. There are a couple of bird hides set around the reserve as well as picnic sites and even a small restaurant. Activities such as night drives can also be booked with the reserve. Spend an hour or two here or even make a day of it.
Details
Zugang
Rietvlei Nature Reserve is in southern Pretoria, located between the R21 highway (OR Tambo Airport highway) on the west and the R50 road (Delmas–Bapsfontein) on the north-east. Press P on the map for directions to the main entrance gate (1). Even though this reserve is on the outskirts of Pretoria it is a bit off the main route so public transport options are limited. The reserve caters mainly to self drive visitors but some guided activities can be booked and there are some hiking trails that can be done (Contact details: Email rietvlein@tshwane.gov.za).
The reserve is access controlled and there is an entrance that needs to be paid (about 5 euro/dollar). The gate opens at 06:00 and closes at 18:00.

Winter birding can be surprisingly rewarding here as many of the plants, such as aloes, are in flower, the grasses are seeding and the vegetation is more open.
