The Welgevonden Game Reserve is divided by the three main rivers that meander quietly through densely wooded regions on their way to joining the mighty Limpopo River. The Game Reserve is part of the larger United Waterberg Biosphere in the Limpopo province, founded in 1993, and is comprised of mountainous terrain divided by deep valleys and kloofs (ravines).
