New Germany Nature Reserve, Protected area in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa.

New Germany Nature Reserve encompasses 110 hectares of coastal grassland and forest, featuring a walk-through aviary and snake display near Pinetown.

The land was designated as common ground for German settlers who arrived in 1848, using it for livestock grazing and wood collection.

The environmental education center organizes guided walks and programs that teach visitors about local wildlife, plants, and conservation methods.

The reserve opens daily from 7:30 AM to 5 PM except Christmas, with free admission and a bird hide overlooking a dam.

The reserve houses over 120 bird species, including the Natal robin and purple-crested Turaco, alongside blue duikers, mongoose, and impala.
