With a slightly altered perspective, the camp strives to be a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. Spanning 33,500 hectares, the reserve offers a variety of exhilarating activities.

 

This afternoon, you can select your favorite wildlife wonder to observe using advanced tracking technology. A knowledgeable guide will bring you as close as possible to the majestic lions or the tusked titans, including elephants and rhinos. This unique tracking system will allow you to enter their world.
