Timbavati, South Africa

About Simbavati Trails Camp

Simbavati Trails Camp is a rustic, eco-conscious camp located in the heart of the Klaserie Private Nature Reserve, dedicated to the tradition of walking safaris. The camp features simple, comfortable tents designed to minimize the footprint while maximizing the connection to the wilderness. There is no electricity, ensuring a pure, off-the-grid experience under the African sky. The primary activity here is guided walking, allowing guests to explore the subtle details of the ecosystem—from tracking wildlife to learning about the smaller flora and fauna often missed on vehicle drives. It is an adventurous and deeply rewarding stay for those who want to immerse themselves in the rhythm of the bush and appreciate the raw, natural beauty of the Klaserie.

Why we like it

It is one of the few places where you can truly escape modern life. The walking-focused program provides a level of engagement with the landscape that a vehicle just cannot match.
