4
x 4 TRAILS
Southern Africa is one of
the premier destinations in the world for appreciating the
wilderness from a 4x4 vehicle. If you want an intimate experience
with the majesty of nature then a 4x4 trail is highly recommended.
A number of options are available.
Trails lasting several hours or a full day offer fun and adventure
whilst longer expeditions take you into the remote areas of
Southern Africa. For those wanting to do a self
drive tour, several companies offer 4x4 rental. Their
vehicles are equipped with all the necessary camping gear,
including a roof top tent. Alternatively, it is possible to
take a guided tour.
A fun and useful activity
are 4x4 training courses, offered by several companies as
well as obstacle-type courses requiring you to drive through
mud, sand, over rock etc.
For the true outdoor enthusiast,
there is no greater thrill then venturing into the wilderness
in a 4x4. There are an endless number of spectacular options
including Botswana with its Okavango Delta and Moremi Game
Reserve; Lesotho with challenging mountain terrain; Mozambique
for its beautiful beaches, fishing, diving and snorkelling;
Namibia for its wildlife, red dunes and the Namib Desert and
Zambia with its nineteen national parks.
South Africa offers
an overwhelming variety of areas to explore from majestic
mountains to dry deserts, from open savannah to tropical forests.
Most of the national parks as well as many private farms offer
4x4 trails. These need to be booked in advance as only one
party is allowed at a time.
