The Diamond Birding Route

The Diamond Birding Route links 8 properties belonging to De Beers and the Oppenheimer family, and shows that the diamond company and the long-time mining clan are adding value to eco-tourism.
 This birding route through South Africa varies from rugged West Coast beaches to carefully tended heritage gardens in Johannesburg; from the red sands of the Kalahari to the hills around Mapungubwe in the Limpopo province. What began as a birding route has morphed into a bouquet of outdoor experiences.
