The Garden Route Wolf Sanctuary, or Noah's Park, is a unique destination on the N2 between Knysna and Plettenberg Bay in South Africa's Western Cape. Established to rescue and rehabilitate wolves, the sanctuary now serves as a key center for wildlife education and conservation, featuring Timber Wolves, Black Backed Jackals, and African Wild Dogs in naturalistic enclosures. Visitors can explore through self-guided tours or the "Walking with Wolves" experience, offered twice daily. They can observe feeding sessions where wolves eat raw meat or chicken. Families can enjoy the interactive animal touch farm with farm animals like pot-bellied pigs and Friesian cattle. The sanctuary also includes a tea garden for refreshments, picnic areas, a children's playground, and a gift shop with local crafts and wolf-themed items. The Garden Route Wolf Sanctuary blends wildlife conservation with educational and recreational activities, providing a memorable experience for all visitors.

Amazing experience. Good to see the wolves, wolf dogs and huskies in a safe space, although fenced off they roam free in vast open spaces. The guided tour with Katherina was awesome. Hats off to the team that takes special care of the animals.

Really enjoyed visiting this place when I was in Knysna. This is such a fun experience especially if you haven't seen a wolf in real life before. A great place to take the kids to especially when feeding the goats. The other animals like the rabbits, ducks, ponies is also fun to see. This is a great place for animal lovers, I really enjoyed my time here.

It was such a fun outing. The wolves were a delight to see. Visiting the petting zoo was just as fun. Very clean rest rooms and friendly staff. Thank you for the experience.

It's okay. Honestly, there's not much to write home about. The cost is pretty steep, but I do understand it is to help look after the animals. The lady working there is very knowledgeable, but it seems like she uses 'substances'. Very nice lady, though : ) If you want to look at farm animals, ONE WOLF, and several wolf/ dog cross breeds and have some time to kill, I'd recommend it.

My husband and I went there for the second time . This year, we did the guided tour. Wow, what an experience. The guide explained everything so well, and she made our tour interesting. I will definitely recommend doing the guided tour.
