Additional farms
Our primary hunting location is on the Huntershill Lodge on Wildschutsberg Game Farm. However, we also have four additional farms.
We use these farms to keep specific game, for breeding programs, and for specific hunting purposes.
In this way, we protect our species, and ensure there will always be the right game, at the right time, for you.
Our history
In the early 1800's, the original farm was owned by a British nobleman.
It was renamed Wildschutsberg by a later Dutch owner.
The name "Wildschutsberg" means Hunter’s Hill and so the name has been retained.
The current farm has been extended through purchase of nearby farms.
Huntershill is now one of the largest game farms in the Eastern Cape.
Huntershill was established by Greg Harvey in 2000 with just 2,500 hectares. Now it is 55,000 acres.
Greg has grown the operation and now entertains hunters from all over the world, including the USA, UK, Spain, Denmark, France, Canada, China, Argentina, Russia and Italy.
Huntershill Safaris Supports Those in Need
As part of our commitment to support our community and those in need, Huntershill Safaris is affiliated with Safari Club International. For many years we have collected sporting equipment, etc and donated it to local schools that otherwise would not be able to expand their sport activities.
We have also partnered with NGO Angel Outreach in East London, a not-for-profit organization that supports abandoned children through various safe houses and orphanages in the Eastern Cape.
Not only do we volunteer our time and energy in ensuring abandoned children are shown love and care through personal interactions, games, and activities, we also donate venison and freshly hunted carcasses to orphanages in need.
Through our partnerships with these organizations, Huntershill Safaris continues to give back to the community, supporting protection and care for the vulnerable, and uplifting the people and community around us.

The Professional Hunters at Huntershill Safaris
Jason
I started hunting at the young age of 11 and guided my first animal at 13. In 2009 my passion become a reality where I got my PH for big game. I am currently licensed in the Eastern Cape, Western Cape and Zambia.
My favorite animal to hunt is the Vaal Rhebuck and any free range kudu bulls. The tiny 10 also have a special place in my heart, as I believe this is the ultimate list to complete in Africa.
I became a PH because I am a peoples person and nothing brings me more joy than to see a client who has dreamt about his African Safari shoot what has been on his wish list. To me this is the best job in the whole world as nothing can beat sitting around the campfire making plans to what you will do the next day. You can sit the whole night planning all the finer details but everything can change a second the next day when you’re out and nothing brings me more joy. It is the thrill of the unknown that keeps us hunters hooked.
To me hunting is all about conservation, the people we bring together and the people and communities that benefit from hunting is massive. Huntershill strives to sell not only an animal but a whole experience and I am so lucky to be part of that. May I do this until the day I die.
Boyce
Myself and my wife are based at Rocklands just outside Fort Beaufort. We absolutely love being in the hospitality industry. I have always wanted to be a PH, I have always loved hunting and in 2005 I finally starting to live my passion. I got my PH license then and have never looked back.
My favorite animal to hunt is a Bushbuck, it is a very shy and elusive animal and it takes lots of time and effort to get a good ram.
Hunting has allowed me to make friends with all sorts of people from around the world, allowing me to make so many connections. Hunting has also allowed me to create a good life for myself and my family.
Brett
I became a PH in 2013, my favorite animal to hunt is a kudu and warthog.
My love for the outdoors and hunting made me pursue my passion as a Professional Hunter.
I am a strong believer in conservation, I am an honorary Ranger at the Lawrence DE Lange Game reserve in Queenstown. By being a Ranger I am able to be very involved in wildlife conservation in our community.
