Usually victims to ill treatment in Eastern European Circuses or horrific conditions in the pet trade, these lions are given a chance to live out their lives on 50 acres in the Cape Winelands. One can stay overnight in the park, in a well-appointed tented camp, have dinner under the African stars and enjoy a continental breakfast the next morning.
Enjoy the lions at sunset, hear them roar at night and see the early morning antics without disturbance from day visitors. It is not possible to pet the lion cubs, as this only happens when the cubs have been taken away from their mothers and is not how Drakenstein operates, where the lion welfare comes first. The park is not involved in commercial breeding or trade, and only works with animals that cannot be rehabilitated to the wild.
Feeding times are Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 4pm, and you can see them getting restless as soon as they hear the quadbike with a cart full of chicken carcasses approaching. Paul Hart has achieved wonders at this sanctuary for rescued lions.
It is truly a place of peace and safety for the King of the beasts. View rates and bookings here. Volunteers have the unique opportunity to become a part of our team of dedicated animal care givers and experience the day to day running of a lion sanctuary, working for the animals and not with them.
