Rietvlei Zoo Farm is a working farm south of Johannesburg with picnic areas, mountain bike trails, and event spaces. You can bring your own food to braai under the willow and oak trees, or book a lapa for larger groups. The grounds include natural wetlands and lawns, with marked trails for biking from beginner to advanced levels.

The farm hosts regular events like markets and a weekly parkrun. Mountain bikers use the six marked trails daily, with an entrance fee for access. Picnic areas are open to visitors who bring their own supplies, and there are shops and eateries on site.

Rietvlei is a place for outdoor activities rather than a traditional zoo. The trails and picnic spots draw families and groups looking for a day outside the city.
