Accommodation Venue - Golden Gate National
Park ( Game Lodges & Resorts Accommodation
in Golden Gate National Park / Free State / South Africa )
Nestled in the rolling foothills of the Maluti
Mountains of the north eastern Free State lies the Golden Gate
Highlands National Park. The park derives its name from the brilliant
shades of gold cast by the sun on the park's sandstone cliffs,
especially the imposing Brandwag rock, keeping vigil over the
main rest camp.This 11 600 hectares of unique environment is true
highland habitat, providing home to a variety of mammals –
black wildebeest, eland, blesbok, oribi, springbok and Burchell's
zebra - and birds, including the rare bearded vulture (lammergeier)
and the equally rare bald ibis, which breed on the ledges in the
sandstone cliffs. Ribbokkop, the highest point in the park, reveals
a breathtaking tapestry of red, yellow and purple hues as its
warm shades merge with the cool mountain shadows towards
