Overview


This page is a work in progress.  Some of the things we want to include are listed below. 
  • The Harkerville Trail.  Spectacular coastal scenery on an overnight hike. 
  • The Arangieskop Trail.  A steep climb to one of the most scenic huts in the country.
  • Kruger.  One guided hiking trail and a night in Russell's favourite small camp.
  • Even on the overnight walks, we will have beds and shelters.  
  • Amazing wildlife.
  • A wonderful variety of landscapes: pools, gorges, spectacular cliff top views and more. 

Although we've been running trips to southern Africa for 25 years, there is still no one else who offers trips like ours.
