Tillietudlem
Nature Reserve is a 2000 ha nature reserve situated in the most scenic part of
the Midlands Meander. Its main function is to protect one of the most
threatened eco-systems in Africa – the mountain mist-belt grasslands.

Where we started

The first 731 ha of what is now the reserve was purchased in 1997 by the current owner . Being a passionate  conservationist he envisioned the property being restored to its former glory . Though the years neighboring properties where acquired to form the 2000ha nature reserve known as Tillietudlem
