Game Walk Wonders

Embark on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure treading in the footsteps of Africa’s iconic wildlife on a game walking safari with Kings Camp. Situated in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve in South Africa, ours is one of the best destinations in the world for a game walking safari. The Timbavati is home to some of the best professional guides on the continent and offers spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife to be discovered.

Much like game drives, game walks form the cornerstone of any classic safari experience in Southern Africa. Our exclusive camp in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve offers privately guided game walks with seasoned rangers into the wilderness of the Greater Kruger.

Game walks offer the unique opportunity to experience the bush right up close and discover the smaller wonders of the African continent first hand. Under the guidance of our professional guides, you will get to encounter wildlife on foot, as well as learn about the area around you in a more intimate way than from a seat in a game viewing vehicle.

For seasoned safari-goers and those looking for a thrill beyond the excitement of seeing the Big Five on a game drive vehicle – guided game walks offer an opportunity to connect with the African bush and learn about the fascinating fauna and flora of Kings Camp Private Nature Reserve.

On foot, you will immediately feel your senses heighten, you’ll smell the scent of crushed grass beneath your feet and become aware of every birdsong and beetle buzzing past you. In the company of an experienced guide, you’ll learn to read the signs of the bush, identify tracks and animal droppings, smell and taste wild herbs, learn their traditional uses, and use the direction of the wind to get close to smaller game like impala without them knowing you are even there.

Free from the constraints of roads and diesel engines, you’ll have the opportunity to touch Africa and let Africa touch you.

Game Walks take place just after breakfast on request. The age restriction for this adventure is 16 years and above for safety reasons, with a maximum of eight guests on the walk. Game walks are included in your rate.
