[ OVERVIEW ]
On your bike
Cycle through the bush on one of the mountain bikes provided for your convenience or bring your own. There are several technical sections of soft sand so keep your weight off the front wheel and pedal like mad. Catch your breath in between as you discover indigenous game, abundant bird life, flowers, trees and insects as you cycle. Bring a field guide and binoculars and keep them handy for bird-watching and flora and fauna spotting.
Off your bike
Included in the daily rate is access to the Hippo Health Hydro which has a Jacuzzi, sauna, gym equipment, splash pool and outdoor shower. Optional extras include massages, pedicures and manicures.
