Description

Hammond Ranch is a 13,000-hectare privately owned wildlife conservancy located within the renowned Savé Valley Conservancy in southeastern Zimbabwe. Formerly a cattle ranch, Hammond has been meticulously restored into a thriving natural sanctuary, offering diverse ecosystems that support an exceptional variety of wildlife. The Savé Valley Conservancy, spanning nearly 400,000 hectares, is the largest private game reserve in Africa, home to hundreds of indigenous species, including significant populations of endangered black rhinos and African wild dogs.

Hammond’s landscape combines open savannah grasslands, riverine forests, mixed woodlands, and iconic granite kopjes, providing optimal habitats for a range of flora and fauna. The property hosts Africa’s “Big Five”—elephant, rhino, lion, leopard, and Cape buffalo—whose populations have been successfully reestablished. The conservation efforts and habitat restoration have transformed Hammond into a self-sustaining ecosystem where wildlife thrives.

The property features well-maintained infrastructure, including a central camp with three thatched guest lodges. Each lodge offers en-suite bathrooms, sleeping lofts, and direct access to the surrounding wilderness. A communal Boma serves as the heart of the camp, complemented by on-site gardens providing fresh produce and reliable water sourced from private wells. Wildlife such as kudu, bushbuck, and impala freely roam the grounds, further enhancing the natural setting.

Hammond represents a rare opportunity to own a well-established wildlife conservancy within one of Africa’s most prestigious private reserves. With its proven conservation success, exceptional biodiversity, and existing infrastructure, Hammond offers both a sustainable investment and a legacy property in the heart of Africa’s wilderness.
