Shamwari was the original malaria-free game reserve in the Eastern Cape and remains at the forefront of conservation in the area. One of Shamwari's strengths is that it lies at the convergence of five ecosystems and this diversity supports the Big Five
(elephant, lion, leopard, rhino, buffalo) as well as varied antelope and a rich birdlife. This beautiful 20,000ha malaria-free reserve is situated in the verdant bush along the Bushmans River, between Port Elizabeth and Grahamstown. Luxury accommodation is offered six game lodges on the reserve, quite diverse in their appearance. As well as morning and afternoon game drives with experienced and well-trained rangers, you can relax at the Spa at Eagle's Crag. Over the years, Shamwari has won many awards including the World's Leading Conservation Company and Game Reserve.

Shamwari is at the forefront of sustainable eco-tourism. Conservation at Shamwari is about the development, management and rehabilitation of the Eastern Cape bushveld to create a sustainable eco-system through the ongoing implementation of conservation principals. Their wildlife department includes a breeding centre, an education centre and a team of ecologists, enviromentalists and game-management experts.

Eagles Crag Lodge is an avant-garde masterpiece of thatch, stone and glass nestled in a secluded lush valley in the central part of Shamwari game reserve. Quite simply we would say that Eagle's Crag offers the most luxurious accommodation in Shamwari. It comprises nine luxurious, detached suites, each with private wooden deck, indoor and outdoor showers and private plunge pool. The suites have a light and airy feel with contemporary colours and light wood furniture. Wall to wall glass doors on two sides allow you to open up the suite to the sights and sounds of the surrounding kloof (valley).

The main lodge is stylish and luxurious with plenty of quiet spots to relax. Enjoy a sumptuous meal in the dining room before retiring to the gracious lounge for a quiet drink and a chat with fellow guests. Outside there's a boma for alfresco dining, a swimming pool and viewing deck. Eagles Crag has its own wellness centre with a variety of personalised treatments to choose from.
