Bushwakkers Foot Safaris
Bushwakkers Foot Safaris enable people to be exposed to the excitement of new and different environments. Our foot safaris, like our survival courses, are about venturing into the unknown, both into the physical and psychological dimensions, allowing discovery of the environment and one’s own personality. Participants are put into situations where they challenge themselves as well as develop co-operative inter-dependent relationships with their peers and associates alike.
The real treat is that you have it all to yourself - with Bushwakkers Foot Safaris you pay for exclusive rights.
Beautiful sunrises and sunsets, the memories of evenings passed around the campfire, and splendid views from hills and mountain tops dim the memory of the most difficult moments. The duration of Foot Safaris can range from 2 to 5 days depending on your available time parameters.
A sense of anticipation will grip you as you venture into the unknown. Our specialist instructors guide and support you through each stage to ensure your safety whatever your fitness level and regardless of what nature bestows upon you.
Bushwakkers foot safari courses include:
• Basic Foot Safari Course (2 Days) at Bush 2;
• Intermediate Foot Safari Course (3 Days) hike to Bush 2 and Bush 3;
• Advanced Safari with safety and rescue training (5 Days) at Hell Mountain.
From 5 star accommodation at Johannesburg you will move on to Bush 2 where the hiker huts or rondawels are basic and rudimentary. Here you will be fed by the chef at the camp or “Go Bush” by enjoying your very own Braai (Bar-b-cue). Hell Mountain is awaiting your stay at Bush 3 where the accommodation is even less sophisticated. You will sleep under the stars or in a tent, and be expected to assist with the cooking. You will carry all your own food and water for the next 2/5 days, climbing up and through Hell Mountain with nights spent at the tented encampment and Leopards Gorge.
For the more adventurous, a possible 3-Day Survival Exercise in Botswana is available, truly an experience from Hell. If you are lucky enough to make the cut you will be flown into Botswana by helicopter and dropped off in a remote area with only a GPS and the bare essentials. Here you will be joined by experienced bushmen who will teach you their ancient skills before you trek to your desert camp a mere 175 km on. Highly professional and experienced Ex British Special Forces Guides accompany each Foot Safari group. They are highly qualified in first aid and emergency evacuation procedures should situations warrant attention where lives are at risk. Our own fully equipped rescue helicopter will be on standby during the duration of the exercise.
