For an inspiring South Africa holiday and eco safari, Kololo Game Reserve provides a superb natural environment to hike, bike and drive in whilst spotting game, birds and fabulous flora. Mountain bikes are provided and picnics can be ordered from the restaurant. There are up to 30km (19 miles) of trails on the reserve.
For an exciting South Africa holiday experience, game drives and guided walks are offered by the resident game ranger who will gladly share his knowledge of the natural environment. The clean and clear Kololo River is wonderful for a swim and fishing enthusiasts should bring their gear. There is also a heated pool at the lodge.
An interesting Ranger Training course is offered for between 5 and 10 people with accommodation in safari tents. Special interest groups can also be hosted, subjects include photography, birding courses, tracking game, bush survival and navigation skills and also team building.
