Situated within the boundaries of a large metropolis, the only Big 5 game reserve in Gauteng, the Dinokeng Game Reserve has the potential to become a model for future conservation where people and wild animals live in harmony. The name of the Dinokeng Game Reserve is derived from the languages of the baTswana and baPedi people who traditionally inhabited the area, and it means “a place of rivers”.
