Mornings at HillsNek have their own kind of glow. As the sun climbs, the grass catches fire with gold, the hills begin to warm, and the whole reserve seems to wake beneath that beautiful early light. Just one of those Eastern Cape mornings you wish you could bottle.

Spring has arrived at HillsNek, and the reserve is putting on a rather beautiful show. Wildflowers are bringing colour back to the hills, new life is appearing in all the right places, and even the lions have found themselves lounging among the daisies. After the quiet tones of winter, the bush feels full of energy again, buzzing with birdsong, blooms and the promise of what’s still to come.

There’s a new soundtrack in the bush.

Birdsong carries a little further in the morning air, calls coming from every corner as spring begins to make itself heard. After a long winter, there’s something rather lovely about waking up to a reserve that suddenly has so much to say.

The bush is looking rather cheerful lately.

Buffalo grazing through a sea of yellow, the first signs of spring appearing across the reserve, and the Eastern Cape showing off a little after everything the landscape has been through. It’s hard not to smile when the view from HillsNek looks like this.

Always a little bit extra.

A little more colour on the breakfast table, a little more flavour on the plate, and a little more beauty waiting outside. The Eastern Cape has a habit of giving generously, from the colours of the landscape to the wildlife that wanders through it.

Breakfast at HillsNek is a pretty good place to start the day.

That sound. A lion’s roar carrying across the reserve is something you never quite get used to. And when he comes walking towards you as he does it, well, you can forget about whatever else you thought you were doing.

It may not be summer just yet, but the Eastern Cape is giving us a little taste of warmer days. The pool is looking particularly inviting, the hills are glowing in the sunshine, and we’re not going to argue with an excuse to spend a little more time outdoors. We’ll happily take it, thank you very much.

Some of the best things in the bush are shared.

A young elephant tucked in close, a watchful mother, and a herd carrying on together across the Eastern Cape. Family is everything, and elephants have a beautiful way of showing us that.

We could watch them all day.

Some evenings, the sky puts on quite a show.

No two sunsets are ever quite the same, and we’ll never get tired of watching them unfold over HillsNek.
