Situated within the expansive 1,000-hectare Umhloti Nature Reserve, just 15 kilometers from Nelspruit, the Jane Goodall Institute’s Chimpanzee Eden is South Africa’s only chimpanzee sanctuary. This remarkable facility provides a safe haven for chimpanzees rescued from traumatic experiences. The sanctuary offers visitors a unique opportunity to observe these intelligent primates in semi-wild enclosures, where they display natural social behaviours.

With its tranquil setting and the important work being done, Chimp Eden is a must-visit for anyone in the Nelspruit area
