  • We recently spent a week traveling the Lebombo Eco Trail, up the eastern edge of the Kruger National Park, along the South African / Mozambican border.
    The Lebombo Eco Trail is a 5 day, off-road adventure, starting at Crocodile Bridge Rest Camp in the south of the KNP, and ending at Pafuri Picnic Site, in the far north of the park.
    Experienced, professional guides act as trail leaders and regularly interpret the various ecozones, flora, and fauna seen on the trail.
    Although it is not strictly speaking a 4×4 challenge, road conditions vary from reasonably good to a few places with steep and rocky inclines and muddy patches, where engaging 4H (and sometimes even 4L) is extremely useful. Good off-road tyres are a must, and dropping your tyre pressure to 1.7 bar is recommended.
    The trail departs from Crocodile Bridge every Sunday and ends at Pafuri on a Thursday, during the dry season from the first Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October, after which the rainy season normally commences making the trail difficult to navigate. A maximum of 5 vehicles (plus the guide’s vehicle) are allowed on the trail at any one time, with a maximum of 4 people per vehicle.
    For more information, or to make a booking, visit the Sanparks website www.sanparks.o...
    All footage in this video was shot on an Apple iPhone 15 Pro, a GoPro Hero 11 Black, and a Canon EOS R mirrorless camera system, with a Simga 150-600 Contemporary series lens. The video was edited using CapCut on an Apple MacBook Air.

      @@CampSeekerAfrica I though it was just nice pickering😀 2x Rangers 2x hilux 1x Amarok and hilux of the Honorary Ranger. We did a strech in a riverbed with big losse rocks that took slow going with the trailers. 4 of the 5 vehicle towed. Only the ranger and the Amarok did not tow. 3 trailers and a conquerer caravan. We all was fine. There is a video from conquerer caravans with a vehicle coming down that look if it's going to fall over. That was taken on the route. One puncher plugged, One Amaroks tyre written off.
