Griffons Nest is built on a plateau just below the highest point of the Waterberg mountain rage this provides visitors with a magnificent view of the mountain which is home to the largest colony of Cape Griffons Vultures in the world. In the Mid-Morning and afternoon you can see them catching the thermals or circling a recent kill from our resident pride of lions or perhaps our newly settled cheetahs.
