Welcome to Zaagkuilsdrift Bird Sanctuary and Lodge, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of the Pienaarsrivier floodplain in Limpopo.

It was the property developer, Sybrand Verheems' vision to create a sanctuary where birds could breed freely and safely. From that vision in 2011, we now have one of the top birding destinations in the country. And going forward we strive to continue with his legacy.
