LJ Hunting Safaris is owned and operated by Juan Stander and Lauren Purdon. Both have grown up on farms and have a passion for the outdoors and a love for animals and hunting. They both grew up in hunting families and even went further to study in the wildlife industry, which gives them good knowledge about the Eastern Cape bush and the game in the area.
LJ Hunting Safaris has an excess of 100 000 acres of pristine land and offers about 25 game species to hunt. We are very passionate about hunting and conservation. Hunts are mainly done by means of walk and stalk and we only make use of ethical hunting techniques. We believe in fair chase of wild animals. Having hunted for various outfitters in the past we strive to make every hunters time with us as memorable as possible and meet their needs as much as we possibly can.
Trophy hunts are tailor made to suit the hunter’s preferences and budget. Hunts are exclusive to you and you only. Each hunt is planned and conducted to give the hunter the opportunity to test his or her skills against some of our prime game animals.
The hunting terrain starts along the coast of the Eastern Cape of South Africa. Here the vegetation is thick coastal bushveld with rolling valleys and open plains. The hunting areas extends up into the northern parts of the Eastern Cape where the mountainous areas of the Karoo will test any hunters ability and skill, but does make for a very satisfying hunt at the end of the day. In a seven to ten day hunt we offer the hunter to see more of the Eastern Cape by offering them the chance to hunt a Coastal Concession as well as one of the Northern Concessions.
We strive to offer world class affordable hunting.
Stormberg Concession
The Stormberg Concession terrain is Mountainous and is situated in the Northern parts of the Eastern Cape of South Africa. This area has witnessed a number of battles in both the Boer and Frontier wars.
The altitude extends up to 7500 feet above sea level. Hunting in this area can be considered as proper ethical hunting as there will be mainly walking and stalking due to the strenuous terrain. Hunters here will be exposed to long range shooting, so a good flat shooting rifle with variable scope is advisable. Cool temperatures can be experienced in this area; therefore it is advisable to bring warm clothes. The days can be temperate, with cold mornings and evenings.
The Stormberg Concession is 8 000 acres of Mountain Terrain and open plains, offering spectacular views. This concession is situated approximately two and a half hours from East London. This Concession is home to large herds of Mountain Reedbuck, Springbuck and some magnificent Blesbuck. This is also home to the very elusive Grey Rhebuck or Vaal Rhebuck, which always makes for a very exciting and challenging hunt. The Grey Rhebuck has the reputation of being one of the most difficult small antelope to hunt in South Africa, lots of walking and stalking will be needed to get this elusive animal.
Accommodation is a traditional farm house style lodge that has an open plan kitchen. There are three double bed rooms with two en-suite bathrooms as well as two bedrooms perfect for youngsters/kids.
The Stormberg Concession will make a great 7 to 10 day safari combined with one of the coastal properties. By doing this it adds to your African experience as you are able to see different landscapes and habitats of a variety of animal species.
