Welcome to Africa on Foot
Africa on Foot is an intimate hideaway situated in the heart of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve in the Greater Kruger. Famed for its guided walking safaris and informative game drives, Africa on Foot is a major drawcard for safari-goers seeking an unforgettable safari adventure in an exclusive Big 5 destination.
Guests can expect a convivial atmosphere in a comfortable camp boasting all the creature comforts of home. Camp life is simple and easygoing, where the focus is on connecting with others in wild spaces and indulging in a relaxed tempo of life. On site, there is a quaint bar that flows through to a shared dining area, and an outdoor boma section. On balmy summer days, guests can relax at their choice of two splash pools, each furnished with decking and sun loungers.
Sprawled across the camp, there are 5 chalets built from brick and thatch, each furnished with rustic decor and simple colour accents inspired by the surrounding bushveld. Rooms have mosquito nets, showers, and standing fans. For the more adventurous, there is a treehouse which can be booked at an extra cost.
Morning bush walks and evening game drives take place on the 13 000-hectare traverse, both led by professional guides and trackers. Game drives take place in lieu of walks if the weather is unpredictable, ensuring that there are always two activities per day.

Location
Africa on Foot is located in the Klaserie Private Nature reserve within the Greater Kruger. Africa on Foot enjoys 13 000 hectares of traversing rights across varied terrain in a sought-after area just outside of Hoedspruit.
The Klaserie is a well-known Big 5 Game Reserve that shares unfenced borders with the Kruger National Park and other world-renown private reserves, such as the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve and the Balule Nature Reserve. This means that there is free movement of predators, the rest of the Big 5, as well as plains game throughout all of these reserves.
Africa on Foot is just one hour’s drive from Hoedspruit town and 40 minutes from Hoedspruit airport.
For self-drivers, the route is easy and signposted from the road. You will need to follow the Africa on Foot directions, and NOT Google Maps or GPS.
Lodge & Rooms
The camp’s main area blends traditional safari style with comfort: enjoy hearty home-cooked meals, drinks at the bar, and evenings around the fire-lit boma. The two swimming pools – one beside the camp and another near the treehouse – offer welcome relief from the heat, with elephants known to visit during the dry winter months.
Each room is styled with earthy tones, quality linen, and en-suite bathrooms. Two family units cater for those travelling with children, while outdoor showers in select rooms allow for a refreshing rinse beneath the open sky.
Wildlife
During the dry season, sparse vegetation draws wildlife to watering holes, while in the wet season, animals spread out amid dense foliage. Over a 2-3 night stay, you can expect to see the Big Five and two resident lion prides. Other common wildlife includes giraffe, zebra, hyena, hippo, impala, kudu, baboon, and more. You also might see wild dog, cheetah, honey badger, and serval. Birdlife features vultures, owls, bee-eaters, rollers, eagles, hornbills, and shrikes.
