Slackpacking - Have you heard that term before? Well, the basic idea is that of a walking or hiking safari, but without the burden of heavy bags, all you need is a day pack, and all the rest of your luggage gets transferred by vehicle between camps. African Travel Gateway has created an adventurous slackpacking itinerary where you will get to experience the famous Kruger National Park on foot, hike up one of the mountain peaks in the Blyde River Canyon, as well as traverse the Cape Peninsula and Cape Winelands. If that sounds like your kind of adventure, pop us an email at [email protected] and find out how we can include slackpacking or a walking safari into your next holiday.
