Hoedspruit BackpackHers

Overall Rating

Not enough customers have reviewed this property for us to provide a fair rating but don't worry, we'll have a rating soon.

Hoedspruit BackpackHers in conjunction with Campfire Safaris Private Game Reserve is a totally unique project with opportunities and features that differ greatly from most of the volunteer work experience projects, tourist destinations and internship venues, you'll find in South Africa.

Hoedspruit BackpackHers is situated in the Lowveld of the Limpopo Province of South Africa in the tourist town, Hoedspruit, 430km. north east of Pretoria. This little town is well known as the gateway to the Kruger National Park, a DON'T MISS IN SOUTHERN AFRICA!!

The backpackers are part of a greater project which gives the tourist/student the opportunity to live for a reduced price but still have the opportunity to take part in the daily activities on Campfire Safaris. OR if you are only travelling through Hoedspruit we will provide you with a home away from home for a minimal fee!!

A bit about Campfire Safaris wild life conservation project:
We are part of the Balule Private Nature Reserve (65000 hectares) which is adjacent to the world renowned Kruger National Park.

With no substantial fences between us and Kruger National Park, no internal fences within our reserve and no animals in camps and cages (captivity), we offer our guests an unmatched stay in an open ecological system called the Greater Kruger Park - over 2 million hectares.

Here the indigenous Flora enjoys maximum protection and our wild animals migrate freely between Campfire Safaris Private Game Reserve and Kruger National Park. This is not a man created Big 5 area. It is the largest of the few areas in South Africa that is still wilderness, as it was from the day of creation.

Our Reserve is a natural Big 5 (Elephant, Rhino, Buffalo, Lion, Leopard) reserve adjacent to Kruger National Park and therefore we have most of the herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, reptiles, snakes, primates, smaller cats, eagles, vultures, birds, insects and their relatives that you find in Kruger National Park, roaming freely on our Reserve. During the walks and drives we offer, you'll almost always see animals.
