Biking in the Kruger National Park |
ADVENTURE tourists can now go on bicycle trails in the Kruger National Park.
The trails are available at the Olifants Camp and were launched this month.
"This is a way to get people much closer to wildlife with very little impact on the environment," said hospitality service manager at Olifants, Hein Grobler.
Up to six cyclists can be accommodated per trail and they're guaranteed to see a host of game, birds and plant life. Mountain bikes, backpacks, water bottles, helmets and snacks are provided, while two qualified field guides provide not only protection, but some bush interpretations.
There are trails of three to four hours that take place in the morning and afternoon, as well as full-day trail for more experienced cyclists. Guests can choose moderate terrain to very technical or strenuous terrain.
