Get in the 4x4 and go! The African Ivory Route is a self-drive journey through the wildest heart of Limpopo province. It features a series of rustic, self-catering bush camps that follow in the footsteps of historical characters like rain queens and elephant hunters. The cultural and natural richness of the route provide ideal off-road travelling opportunities. To avoid disrupting ecosystems, the roads are basic and cater for 4x4’s. The bush camps are well placed within the rural areas and nature reserves for tourists to experience the beauty and character of each area.

If it’s abseiling, kloofing and rock-climbing you’re after, head for the wild mountains of the Magoebaskloof area. Expert guides offer extreme sports in a breathtaking setting – the wild and untamed Mohlapetsi Valley. Caving is growing in popularity here too and instructors will help you discover subterranean excitement.

Extreme kloofing is not for the faint-hearted. Join the river on its downward journey, scramble over rock, abseil, climb, hike through forests, bum-slide, rock hop, swim, float down river and be prepared to launch yourself off the edge of waterfalls to pools below. Whatever the obstacle, you’ll feel exhilarated by rising to the challenge. And if you simply have to take to the skies, try microlighting above the glorious Limpopo landscape.
