Actually I’m surprised they running the South to North trail again, they stopped it a while back due to security concerns (not of the animal kind) and opened an east to west up north - which I believe wasn’t that great. Really pleased to hear they opening this route up again

 Very interested, but I dont have a RTT or off road caravan and not planning to buy them anytime soon.

Awesome post!

 I heard one can take a 4x4 caravan with, count me in if so
Look, with a 07:30 departure time, a RTT is the way to go... But an Off Road Trailer will work, especially since it's self catering...

 Also interested but seems I’m excluded as I am 65. Not sure why this makes a difference. :( :(
I agree. I'd like someone on the group I can outrun. :lol:

Also feel discriminated against. 65 terrible age.
Must be an extremely dangerous trial.
Maybe we will go somewhere safer like Moremi or Kwai.

I remember reading that the age limit was in place because of insurance requirements. There was mention that a fitness certificate from a doctor was a way past this restriction. This information was all on the SANParks website where the information on the available trails is.

Sticking a bunch of millenials in the wilderness on their own without any boomers is just plain risky and irresponsible.
