Golden Gate National Park

Golden Gate National Park is a scenic reserve in the Free State

Golden Gate National Park is a scenic reserve in the Free State and is a member of the South African National Parks. (SANParks.)

Golden Gate derives its name from the colour of the sandstone rock formations at sunrise and sunset.

Nestled in the rolling foothills of the Maluti Mountains of the north eastern Free State lies the Golden Gate Highlands National Park. This 11 600 hectares of unique environment is true highland habitat, providing home to a variety of mammals - black wildebeest, eland, blesbok, oribi, springbok and Burchell's zebra - and birds, including the rare bearded vulture (lammergeier) and the equally rare bald ibis, which breed on the ledges in the sandstone cliffs. Ribbokkop, the highest point in the park, reveals a breathtaking tapestry of red, yellow and purple hues as its warm shades merge with the cool mountain shadows towards evening.
