ABOUT NTHUBU CAMP

Nthubu Camp, an African Ivory Route 4 x 4 destination, is situated in Masebe Nature Reserve in the Waterberg, Limpopo.

The camp is situated on the bank of a river of the same name, which is a tributary of the Klein Mogalakwena River which transects the reserve in the west.

Masebe Nature Reserve is a provincial park of 4 500 ha and is situated in arguably one of the most picturesque spots in all of the Waterberg.

It is characterized by dazzling sandstone cliffs, in the sheltered overhangs and hollows of which San rock art bears testimony of the people who inhabited this land in ancient times, and of what animals they encountered here-which includes elephant, rhinos and buffalo. Today all of these animals no longer roam this area but the reserve hosts most of other game species that naturally occurred here.

Birding is particularly good at this camp, which also presents an ideal habitat for raptors like black eagles, feasting on the abundant hyrax on the cliffs.

Masebe has particularly strong spiritual vibe, which makes it an ideal retreat for those in need to revitalize the mind and spirit. Natural rock shelters present ideal natural meditation salas for those practicing this type of therapy.

THINGS TO DO

• Cultural / traditional experiences
• San Rock Art
• Birding / bird watching - especially raptors
• There is a variety of unique tree species and other flora in the area
• Hiking
• Nature scenery

ABOUT THE AFRICAN IVORY ROUTE

The African Ivory Route in the Limpopo Province has its origins in the legendary exploits of early ivory hunters and gold traders.

Thus the African Ivory Route was established with the adventure traveller in mind. A selection of unique and off the beaten track destinations were therefore a more important consideration than ease of access.

The African Ivory Route covers vast expanses of natural bush and mountain ranges with breath-taking scenery, abundant wildlife and cultural richness.

It is an ideal destination for the safari, adventure and cultural enthusiast.
