Hunting Concession Areas

1. South Africa

Limpopo Province This province creates an opportunity for a great, diverse hunting experience. The habitat can change from fairly open savannah to densely wooded hills. Further north the bushveld dries out into typical woodland dotted with Boabab trees. This habitat diversity has resulted in an amazingly rich mammal fauna. Most species can be hunted in this province although this is not always preferred. We travel to other provinces for selected species.

Mpumalanga Province

This hunt is conducted in areas that vary from a mountainous terrain in a subtropical climate in the areas surrounding Nelspruit to drier Acacia veldt. Further east lays the Kruger National Park which is known for its photographic safari opportunities.

Free State and Eastern Cape

The Free State is a very characteristic flat, grassy area. There is a steady wind blowing. The vegetation and the landscape allows for primarily long distance shots (up to 300m). Flat shooting rifles from .270 to .300 are ideal.

The Eastern Cape consists of coastal forests through to semi desert plains and mountain ranges where there is a wide range of species available. Specific species such as Black wildebeest, Springbuck and Bontebok are available in these provinces.

Chacma Safaris has a concession between Frankfort and Vrede where we can hunt for memorable trophies.

Natal

The vegetation is thick, tropical bushveldt that demands a lot of stalking to hunt some of the more elusive species such as nyala. The province stretches along the coast and this allows for rolling hills and beautiful coastal scenery. Species that are own to this province are the Nyala, Red Duiker and Livingstone Suni. Our concessions are in the Pongola area.

2. Zimbabwe Zimbabwe is a country of almost 39 075 700 hectares, bordered by South Africa, Mozambique, Botswana and Zambia. The habitat ranges from tropical woodlands and savannah interspersed with areas of grassland. Zimbabwe offer dangerous game hunting and the hunting areas boasts of huge game populations. Our hunting concessions vary from an area close to West Nicolson, to Binga on Lake Kariba.

3. Botswana

The Kalahari Desert covers almost the entire country. This country not only contains sand dunes but also great flat plains, mountain and hill ranges, and seasonal pans that hold water for only a few weeks once in several years. Surrounded by the Kalahari Desert lays a huge inland delta, which covers 15 000 square kilometers, fed by the flow of the Okavango river.

Our hunting concession is renowned for its Big Five hunts. Breathtaking views, superb accommodation and numerous hunting options make these concessions exclusive. The concessions border on the Chobe National Park, Moremi Game Reserve and the Hwange National Park on the Botswana side.

5. Mozambique

In Northern Mozambique the vegetation is primarily Miombo woodlands interspersed with open savannah and wetlands (grassy depressions where water collects).

Our hunting concessions lay primarily in the Niassa Province of Mozambique which is the least developed with the lowest density population. It is one of the largest protected miombo forest ecosystems in the world with surface of 42 000 square kilometers. It contains the greatest concentration of wildlife in the country.
