This well-established 10 538 hectare small stock farm exudes a great sense of closeness to nature and lies in the beautiful and tranquil Western Kalahari.The topography consists of a variety of hard field, hills, valleys, grass and vegetated dunes covered with Gha grass and Camelthorn trees. The farm has a very lovely Kalahari environment supported by the semi-arid sandy savannah. The bulk of the vegetation consists of grasses and shrubs. In regards to trees, the most prevalent ones are acacia trees like the Camelthorn (Acacia erioloba) and Shephard`s (better known matoppie or witgat) trees. The Gha grass (Centropodia glance) is a perennial grass whose role is an important dune stabilizer which provides good grazing and it is inherently drought-resistant, producing a high leaf yield of grass.

A network of inner roads and tracks suitable for 4×4 or 4×2 (diff lock) vehicles make the farm accessible for good management. The 960 km long Molopo River, which only flows in the rainy season, traverses the farm, supporting the sustainability of the vegetation due to the abundance of thorn trees and riverine vegetation.
