Kruger and Mapungubwe - Camping in the rain

Camping in the rain - Mapungubwe and Kruger National Park
Early 2021 saw the tropical storm Guambe transform the North of South Africa. Ed and I decide (on a whim) to visit Mapungubwe and Kruger National Parks to see what it looks like. In an attempt to go see the big waters, this trip would take 14 days and traverse over 3000 km and three provinces. We camp at Molope, Mazhou, Punda Maria, Tsendze, Satara, Lower Sabie, Pretoriuskop and Berg-en-dal along the way.
A special thanks to Edward Bath Overlanding (bit.ly/3ah09HJ) for joining me on this trip again, for sharing some great footage and awesome camera work! Thumbnail also courtesy of Edward Bath.

[@couger8512]

Have been to all of them, and yes peak season looks much different, Going to Satara end of April to visit my Dad's bench in the corner of Satara's camp near the bungalow's. Great work your doing, Please keep it up.

[@GetOutGO]

Thank you!

[@campingwithtshidiso]

And you just had to make us wait 🤪

[@heinlange1506]

Cannot wait

[@bothwellnyamhondera948]

I love it when I'm in a national park and it rains, light to average showers❤ . I feel at home when I'm out there,the great outdoors!!!. You guys' videos always put some sparkle in our lives some of us nature lovers. What beautiful places you are privileged to visit. Thanx a ton.

[@coadyg]

When opening those cans put your thumb on the center pin and lever up with your forefinger then it should not break.

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks Gary 😂 I’m useless at cooking (clearly)

[@jacojacobs3006]

Visited Kruger also chasing the water and rain . Stunning to see the rivers in flood

[@GetOutGO]

Was truly amazing hey?

[@tiagopinto-coelho1894]

Awesome video Chris, thanks for keeping us up to date with what’s happening in the bush 👏🏻👏🏻

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks, my pleasure!

[@CharlineRibotta]

Such a cool vid Christoff! It makes me miss what I love most of Africa! And you defo give me ideas on where to stay when I'm back :D Thank you man!

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks Charline!

[@karlapiso6964]

Couldn't agree with you more on the bathroom to campsite ratio. I've been trying to get that message through for the longest time. Great video as always.

[@GetOutGO]

Yup, that and some maintenance… Thank you!

[@eugenedarvell8470]

Hi just interested. What do you do with the trash and wast food . Do you put them in your vehicle or do you put them in a trashRoo and hang the them up in a tree so the animal can,t get at the trash. I live in the uk so would to now more about four wheel driving in South Africa

[@GetOutGO]

All of the South African national parks have garbage bins at camp. In remote camps, especially in Botswana, you have to carry your garbage with you (wheel bins like the trasharoo works best) and dispose of it at specific points (at the gates or towns). Roofracks are usually the best place to put garbage bags to keep it away from animals.

[@wesleymullins8818]

Awesome video, definitely think it's one of your best yet. Looking forward to future content.

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks Wesley!

[@exploringwithsimon8895]

Hi Kristoff. Where you in the last two weeks in the Savuti? I think you camped next door to us/

[@GetOutGO]

Yup we were in Savuti, give is a shout next time!

[@jameslaurie8912]

[@robertharold2503]

Food looked great..but where’s the pap?

[@GetOutGO]

One disaster at a time 😂 I'll make fresh bread next time (but I'll put pap down on the list)

[@freddievanstaden7536]

What hat are you wearing and where did you buy it?

[@GetOutGO]

It’s a Driza-Bone, they don’t make them anymore unfortunately. Closest hat to it is an Akubra but they’re crazy expensive.

[@CarloKuhn]

What about Balule - Rustic camp?

[@GetOutGO]

Balule is classified as a satellite camp. It has huts as well and let’s face it, it doesn’t come close to Tsendze.

[@Bushlove420]

Didn’t get food poisoning 😄☀️✌️🐆

[@GetOutGO]

Yup, we were lucky 😂

[@siphosibiya4472]

Oh! What a shot of the owl. Beautiful

[@bertusgeustyn1113]

Awesome footage of a most beautiful Kruger. Am i mistaken or was that male lion you guys filmed, was he injured, the one walking towards your vehicle and then lying down in the road? Thanks for bringing it to us.

[@GetOutGO]

My pleasure! Yes, the one male lion had an injury on one of his legs

[@leonfouche8470]

Great video as usual Chris, thanks! Managed to watch it now only after signal issues with the premier on Tuesday.

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks Leon, much appreciated!

[@sarelalberts8890]

Thanks Christoff for sharing your trip with us .We were at the same time as you guys .What a downpour was it at Blouberg .We had it like that for 3 knights at the wilderness camp .Enjoy.

My pleasure Sarel!

Great video..very professional. I really enjoy seeing the camp setup.

Thank you very much Robert!

[@sinjhguddu4974]

A very refreshing tour. Thank you! Could not recognise the owl for quite a while.

[@GetOutGO]

Glad you enjoyed it! It's a little scops owl 🙂

[@greatsouthernoverland]

Cant get enough of you fellas and your travels!! More cooking segments from you please, its not a great camp oven until your covered in half of it:D It was so amzing to see the transformation with the rains!!! Thank you for putting the work in to bring us such beautiful country.

[@GetOutGO]

Thanks Vic! Next up will be a pot bread, just imagine the mess I’m going to make with that! 😂

Great job again Chris👍 Come on guys , get signed up on Patreon to support Chris !!👏

Much appreciated Alan!

[@robertharold2503]

I also meant to ask about how you manage the heat when tent camping? I’m in the southern state of Georgia and have considered overlanding a three season activity

[@GetOutGO]

I have a 12v fan and try to park in the shade usually but in 40c+ heat all I can say is you just have to get used to it 🤷‍♂️

[@ingerjakobsen4932]

The cooking in itself is worth a watch! Lovely footage and gorgeous nature! Thank you for sharing with us :)

[@GetOutGO]

Glad you enjoyed it Inger! 🙂

I preferer the north as its not as commercialized as the lower parts of Kruger and lost to see!

[@GetOutGO]

Agreed! I also prefer the North

[@Mr09260]

Nice to see Roger at Tsendze we will see him and Elena in Sept for 10 days

[@GetOutGO]

They are legends! Enjoy your stay Peter!

[@reneebrown3766]

I'm no longer a 'meat eater', but, have to say that potjie looked de-li-cious! Also have to say, 'I dream of my childhood in South Africa, it's mountains, rivers, wildlife, nature and fruits, nearly everyday of my 50 years in U.K. and damn, do miss biltong and droewors'! Wonderful to see the lush bush and the soulful music was perfection. Wonderful to have been able to virtually travel with you again. Thank you and thank you to your lovely wife for the 'secret herb and spice mix'.

Our pleasure Renee ☺️
