Aspects of the ecology of the area, environmental management and ethics are also explained and the emphasis is often on environmental education. This 4 or 5-day trail is set in Klaserie Nature Reserve which is nestled in the lowveld of Mpumalanga and situated on the border of the Kruger National Park . The emphasis of the trail is to spend time on foot in the reserve, not only looking for the large mammals but also the smaller creatures, birds and insects that are present. The aspects of the bush that are normally overlooked when driving around a reserve are now observed, allowing a greater understanding of the ecology of the region. The tents are carpeted with proper beds and mosquito netting on both doors.
Meals are prepared over the open fire.
Visitors must supply their own drinks and there are cooling facilities in the camp. The general format of the trail is early rise in the morning, light breakfast and then head out into the bush for a few hours. The walks are designed for enjoyment, observing and learning. A few hours on foot may only result in a few kilometres being covered, as the idea is not to see how far the group can walk. We return late morning and after a brunch spend a few hours relaxing, bird watching in the camp during the heat of the day.
