Game Drives
Driving at different times of the day maximizes the variety
of animals one may encounter. With this in mind we offer both
morning and afternoon drives. We leave for the morning drive at
a time agreed with our guests, stopping at a strategic point,
either a waterhole or view site to enjoy a leisurely cup of
coffee and a rusk. On the afternoon drive we usually try to
find a suitable spot to view the sunset whilst sipping a cool
sundowner, before wending our way back to the lodge and the
welcoming boma fire.
We also offer night drives which give our guests the opportunity
of spotting some of the more elusive nocturnal creatures of the
bush, such as leopard, serval, genet, bush baby and aardwark.
Bush Trails
Our guided walks offer the more adventurous an opportunity to
experience the wilds of Africa in the best possible way, on foot!
A walking trail entails an interpretative guided walk with an
experienced game ranger and a small group of guests. In the
interests of safety, the group is limited to six persons.
Walks are undertaken in the early morning or late afternoon
and run for 2 - 3 hours. These walks afford the unique
opportunity of exploring paths that have been traversed by
wild animals for centuries and bring back the realization of
human vulnerability in the face of the wilds of Africa.
Birding
There is a great diversity of bird life in our "birder friendly"
reserve and patience will be richly rewarded with interesting
sightings. Birds indigenous to the region and frequently sighted
include, the Bateleur, Martial Eagle, Pinkthroated Twinspot,
Paradise Wydah, Yellow Spotted Nicatar, Rudd's Apalis and the
Crested Guineafowl.
