The Wiese Family

•Geelkoppies hunting lodge is located in the Northern Cape province of South Africa, approximately 80km west of Kimberley.

•This area is famous for the world class game farms, conservancies and hunting lodges. This 6000 ha (14,800 ac) game farm, owned by the Wiese family, had its humble beginnings in the 1990’s - during previous ownership - as one camp on a small part of a livestock farm dedicated to game and hunting. 

•Dries Wiese bought the farms in 2000, erected game fencing around the perimeter and obtained a Game Breeders License, enabling year round hunting. In addition to the local game such as Kudu, Gemsbuck, Springbuck and Wildebeest, the farms were then stocked with game from the best breeders in South Africa. 

•Over the past 19 years Geelkoppies has become part of a vibrant hunting community with well established connections within the industry. This enables the lodge to offer services, day trips and game species available on other nearby farms to ensure a complete hunting experience.
