An extraordinary outdoor adventure, with high altitude hikes unlocking staggering viewpoints, beautiful clearings, and endemic wildlife.

We’ll be out with the vehicle and on foot looking for them as they start their days activities. The birdlife in these high plateaus is phenomenal as the biomass of rodents is second to none up here.

We have access to Ponies and they will be in camp for us to use as well. On horseback, you can approach extremely close to the Wolves and it’s an ideal way of crossing the open grassland. You don’t need to be a rider at all as the ponies only walk along at this altitude.

Expect to be hiking for approximately 6 hours during the day. 

Overnight: Wasamaa Hiking Camp

                        Day 6:  Bale Mountains National Park

Through this next section of wilderness, it becomes very easy to see how the mountain massif was formed through one supervolcano long in the past. The ice age with glaciers have also taken some serious sculpting of the mountains, but the walk between Wasamaa and Rafu, really highlights the volcanic influence. Incredible rock formations of basalt pipes and granite boulders litter the high country and makes walking through here an absolutely stunning experience.

Expect to be hiking for about 6 hours during the day

Overnight: Rafu Hiking Camp

                          Day 7: Bale Mountains National Park

Walking across a small section of the Sanetti Plateau across the Plateau, we meet with the vehicle/s that will take us down the escarpment and into Bale Mountain Lodge.
