Visit Ukutula Lion Park

The Ukutula Lion Park is also known as the ‘place of quiet’, is situated only an hour’s drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria and has 260 hectares of wild bushveld filled with lions, various antelope, giraffe and zebra. Here you can have the pleasure of observing and photographing lions in their natural environment, not to mention holding lion cubs.
