5 Tips for the keen hiker

Carry snacks and water at all times1)

It is essential that you stay hydrated and sustain your

body with the energy necessary to

venture on walks through the wild.

Hike in a group2)Stay with your

group! Accidents happen. Hiking

through nature has its risks – be sure to

have at least one other person with

you to aid you should it be necessary.

Only pack the essentials3)

You don’t want to walk around with kilograms of food

and clothes on your back. Pack light so you can enjoy your

walk.

Take a map or ask for a guide to avoid getting lost

4)

Never leave the pack and never

stray from the path. If you want to take a different path, be sure to take a map

or a guide who knows the area

well.

Wear Comfortable Shoes5)

Nothing crushes the spirit like blistered feet. Remember to break in your shoes before attempting a

long hike.

** Find the perfect hiking route!

Be sure to choose a hiking route and hiking group that suits your fitness

profile. Many game reserves offer

guided hikes tailored to suit you and ensure your utmost comfort

throughout the trip.
