Africa on Foot Wilderness Trails is a one-of-a-kind mobile safari experience in South Africa.  A sister camp to Klaserie’s Africa on Foot, Wilderness Trails is designed to offer 3 nights camping in the Maseke Balule Game Reserve, each night in a different location. Trails usually depart on Mondays and Thursdays.


Each day is spent walking through the 8000 hectare reserve in the Greater Kruger Park, and each night is spent at a new, fully set up mobile campsite in a scenic location in the wilderness. A maximum of 8 guests (sleeping in 4 tents) are taken on the Kruger walking adventure of a lifetime.

A professional Africa on Foot trained guide and tracker team will lead an informative, thrilling, and unforgettable walk in the wild. While guests are out exploring the Kruger on foot, a ground team will be taking down the first camp and setting up the next one in a new location. A packed brunch will be enjoyed in the bush, while snacks and refreshments will be on offer upon arrival at camp. Evening game drives complete the experience, before campfire dinners and bed in a canvas dome tent.

Activities

Walking in the Wilderness

Walkers will spend 3 days walking through the Maseke Balule Game Reserve, with plenty of refreshment breaks and siestas in between. The terrain is rocky but an easy walk covering quite a distance.

Star Gazing in the Maseke Balaule Game Reserve

When you return to camp after a long day of walking, you will settle into the evening under the pristine night sky and observe the clarity of the Milky Way and Southern Cross.

Evening Game Drives

When the day is done, we will return to camp and head out in the game viewer in search of nocturnal predators. Game drives will be short and offer the option to view wildlife we miss out on seeing while on foot.
