African Mountain Adventures focuses on providing adventure in mountains in a safe responsible way. This adventure may encompass hiking in a mountainous area or rock climbing/abseiling or mountain biking or camping or photographic expeditions in a mountainous area or a combination of the above. Should the visitor be skilled in these endeavours then African Mountain Adventures will facilitate the adventure. Should the visitor feel in need of some training then African Mountain Adventures will provide this as part of the expedition and included in the price of the expedition. African Mountain Adventures tries to avoid the use of hotels focusing rather on camping. All activities are performed in compliance with the principals of responsible ecotourism. All tour guides are experienced, extensively trained and accredited in terms of the requirements of the Tourism, Hospitality and Sport Education Training Authority (THETA).
When operating in Gauteng we could arrange day trips to the Magaliesberg mountain range for a quality rock experience or some good walking. These day trips could easily be extended to a weekend camping trip.
If a longer trip is required, then one could visit the Waterberg mountains a little North of Pretoria. The Mphumalanga Parks Board property, where the feeder river flows into the Loskop dam, is well worth a visit. Further afield are the Blouberg massif, the Wolkberg wilderness area and the sports climbing area in Watervalboven. If one wants to go higher there is the Northern and Central Drakensberg of KwaZulu Natal. If one uses Cape Town as a base there is Table mountain and its surrounds as the first port of call, followed by some of the most exquisite rock in the world in the Cape Cedarberg Wilderness area.
