Eseltjiesrus Donkey Sanctuary provides a permanent home for abused, neglected and elderly donkeys. The sanctuary is situated just 5kms outside the village of McGregor on the road between Robertson and McGregor on the edge of the Klein Karoo in the Western Cape Province of South Africa. We are 15kms from Robertson. Watch for the direction signs as you approach Tanagra Winery. We are open Thursdays to Sundays from 10am till 4pm.

Here you will find a restaurant (serving light meals), shop (donkey items, wine and books) and lovely walks in a tranquil setting. You can visit the donkeys with one of our Visitor Guides who will explain our work and tell you more about the donkeys that live here. Entrance is by donation.

We look forward to introducing you to our happy residents!
