Trackers Mountain Chalets - come and experience South Africa! Situated against the mountains of the Klein Drakensberg, on the North-Eastern Escarpment, our delightful self-catering chalets face out towards the Kruger National Park, and the last valley of the Blyde Canyon. Our game farm is unique in that it contains mountains and a major river. Highveld at the top of the mountains, down through the sheer escarpment with streams and forest, to the Blyde River in the lowveld. A variation in altitude of 1200 metres..... fynbos at the top and baobabs at the bottom.
Animal life is just as varied. A geologist's nightmare.... a geographer's delight! WE AIM... to foster a love and understanding of nature through exciting enjoyment of wild areas. WE WELCOME... birding and botanical groups, students, and anyone who appreciates the environment. WE PROVIDE... comfortable accommodation and delicious meals. (Please note that we do not supply any alcoholic beverages, but you are very welcome to bring your own!)
