Bontebok National Park
Bontebok National Park near Swellendam protects a rare antelope alongside fynbos and renosterveld, making it a compact conservation-focused stop in the Cape.

Keep exploring South Africa with our travel partners.
The park was established after hunting and settlement had driven bontebok close to extinction. Its grassland and plant communities matter as much as the animal itself. The Breede River and Langeberg foothills give the small protected area a distinct setting.
What to look for
Bontebok conservation is the park’s founding purpose.
Renosterveld and fynbos share the protected landscape.
The Breede River borders the park to the south.
Useful to know
Combine the park with a Swellendam stay rather than treating it as a major cross-country detour.
Look for both antelope and plant habitats during a visit.
