Camdeboo Safari Lodge - Formed hundreds of millions of years ago, the Karoo is one of the great natural wonders of the world.Surrounding the historical town of Graaff-Reinet, known as the gem of the Karoo is the Camdeboo National Park. The first inhabitants of this area gave it the name Camdeboo meaning green valley. Within the Conservancy, nestled in the lush Camdeboo Valley and overlooked by the bewitching Toorberg Mountain, lies Camdeboo Safari Lodge.

EPISODE 2: Calitzdorp to Camdeboo

The plan was simple, take our 1983 Toyota Celica Supra and point it at Camdeboo National Park in the Eastern Cape some 1750km away. We'd cut the trip into four 400km legs per day, in a car that didn't have power steering, air conditioning, a media player of any sort, not carpets or roof lining and that was a crucial omission since this was an African summer. 

    Episode 2 takes us from Calitzdorp Stasie to Camdeboo at last where we would pitch our tent for the second time. Luckily, this trip would be a lot less fraught.


We will be uploading an episode each week in June, each Friday morning. Enjoy!

It was a miracle that we were idling where we were, less than 100m from a buffalo swishing itself cool with its tail.

Flying over the Karoo to Graaff Reinet

ZS-SDT, C172, G1000.

This was a flight with my Brazilian wife and daughter from Johannesburg (Grand Central - FAGC) to the Karoo town of Graaff Reinet (FAGR). FLying time was 4.1hours. The last 30 minutes or so are flown over the Karoo landscapes, lots of hills and semi desert vegetation. It is one of the most magical places in the world.

Density altitude was around 10000 feet at flight level 085 due to heat and unstable air, which made for a bumpy flight.

Pictures of the flight can be seen in my flickr album (together with pictures of other flights):

Recorded with Garmin Virb Elite.
