Mkhaya Game Reserve, Wildlife reserve in southeastern Eswatini.

Located in the lowveld region, Mkhaya Game Reserve encompasses varied habitats with acacia savanna, sandy soils, thickets, and semi-deciduous forests.

The reserve, established in 1979, initially focused on protecting indigenous Nguni cattle before expanding its mission to safeguard endangered species.

The reserve derives its name from the knobthorn tree, known as mkhaya in siSwati, which grows throughout the protected area.

Visitors must make reservations in advance as the reserve operates exclusively through guided tours and offers limited accommodation without electricity or internet.

The Stone Camp features semi-open accommodations where guests sleep behind low stone walls, allowing direct contact with surrounding wildlife and nature.
