       CAMPING & HIKING SAFARIS


                                       


HIKING-PREDOMINANT SAFARIS:

A.    Active Africa - A 10/14 or 21-day, activity-filled adventure safari. 

         This adventure safari is designed especially for the true admirer of Nature, those who do not 
         wish to simply 'visit' Africa, but to truly experience it!
        
[Although categorized as a "Special Interest safari", this safari is basically all hiking & activities
          and should therefore also be included here].

B.    The Angel's View Hiking Adventure (The prime hiking trail of Namibia):-

        This outdoor adventure in Namibia offers an eight-day, 120km (75 miles) hiking trail 
        which has earned itself the reputation of being one of Southern Africa's most demanding
        routes.  With its steep ascents and rocky terrain under-foot, this mountain trail demands a
        high degree of physical fitness.

C.   Desert-to-Desert (A 12-day combination hiking/camping break-away):-

        Desert is not always "just desert", experience the difference between the red Kalahari and
        the golden Namib in Namibia! From the well-known home of the San or Bushman, first
        inhabitants of Africa - The Kalahari Desert - to the oldest desert in the world - The Namib
        Desert! From hunting & food-gathering techniques in the Kalahari, to some of the highest
        sand dunes in the world!

D.    Footloose (A short eco-hiking safari, fully accommodated):- 

        A hiking safari starting off on the edge of the Kalahari desert, then includes the wide open
        vistas of the Namib desert, as well as the well-known Sossusvlei with its high sand dunes
        and ever-changing colours.

E.    Namib Desert on Foot (An unforgettable eco-hiking experience):-

       Is work pressure & stress getting you down? Just 1 week off work, Saturday to Saturday,
        and you will return, feeling as someone who has just been on a long vacation. The highlight
        of this short, outdoor adventure is a three-day, guided hiking trail along the Uchab river in
        the coastal wilderness area of Namibia's Kaokoveld - the last true Wilderness area in Africa!
       
[Although categorized as an "ecotourism safari", this safari is basically a hiking safari & should
          therefore also be included here].

F.    Desert Trail Hiking Safari  (5-Day safari, 3-day hiking):-

        The beauty of a Namib Trail is the fact that you experience so many different aspects of the
        desert – from mountainous terrain to sandy dunes. Walking is conducted at a leisurely pace
        and normally does not exceed 12 km per day.

        rough, but beautiful . . .):-
