Bakubung launches bush walks

BAKUBUNG’s new
guided walking safaris
take guests through
the Pilanesberg bushveld,
allowing them to experience
Africa’s Big Five up close
as well as learn about the
geology, wildlife and plant-life
of the region.
Walking safaris are done
on a request basis in groups
of up to eight guests. It’s an
early start for guests who
depart at around 05h00.
Walking through the bush
at this time provides great
opportunities to spot animals
returning from nightly foraging
and hunting.
It’s not uncommon for
guests to experience a herd
of elephants or a rhino just
15 metres away. All rangers
carry rifles and are extremely
knowledgeable about the
park’s flora and fauna.
The walk is around four to
five hours and about three
hours into the walk, the
ranger will find a vantage
point to view the park and
enjoy the breakfast pack
provided by the lodge.
