About Gondwana Tented Eco Camp

The Tented Eco Camp is located centrally in Gondwana Game Reserve in a beautiful valley blanketed in Fynbos. The Tented Eco Camp offers a 2 night conservation experience which allows guests to participate in wildlife and veld management, learn important bush skills and interpretation, and enjoy a Big 5 safari.

Accommodation

The tents are modern, eco-friendly and very comfortable. The five tents provide single or double accommodation, each with their own en-suite bathroom facilities, set on elevated decks overlooking a grass covered riverbed. A wooden walkway over the riverbed links the accommodation to a central tent, which houses the main lounge, dining space and kitchen area.

The camp is remotely located and completely off the grid; all power is supplied by solar energy or gas. It also has its own fresh water supply. Each tent has an indoor shower and bathroom basin with hot water, as well as a toilet. There is also a shaded relaxation area with hammocks and outdoor lounge seating, as well as a pool to jump into after a hard day in the bush.

Dining

Breakfast, lunch and dinner and all beverages are included.

Conservation Experience

A typical day at the Gondwana Eco Camp would start with a 06h00 wake up, followed by breakfast, a morning activity like lion or elephant tracking and then a conservation project, like surveying vegetation or wetlands. This would be followed by lunch, before heading out on another eco excursion.

At around 16h00 guests would set off on an evening game monitoring drive for about two hours, then return to camp to freshen up before a hearty fireside dinner. The day would conclude with an evening talk and some prep for the next day’s activities. All this is included in the rate. Family specific weeks are also catered for.
