This safari area is Farm Ruppell in Central Namibia. It is an excellent place to start your safari, and is 1 hour drive away from the airport in Windhoek. The best game here is black wildebeest, blue wildebeest, hartebeest, impala, warthog and blesbok. We hunt mostly the wildebeest and blesbuck because there are more of them. You have a better chance of getting a really good trophy. This is open, flat country with bush land and easy to walk. In the mountains on the west end of this area, there is a good chance to hunt mountain zebra. Most of the area does have a game fence, but it is such a large place that it is definitely a fair chase for the animals.
