Bushcursus in het Greater Kruger National Park.  (De cursus wordt in het Engels gegeven).
Een unieke ervaring in de Afrikaanse bush als een leerling ranger
 
Edwin Cruywagen.jpg (98057 bytes) Spend a couple nights  at Amukela Game Lodge, while Edwin Cruywagen teaches you about his world; the bush.
Let him introduce you to the world of living, surviving and working in the bush. Tracking of animals, animal
behaviour and the rangers daily hard work to preserve our vulnarable environment is the order of the day.
  You will learn survival techniques such as finding water, making fire and navigation.
  Be in the bush , where animals such as lion, leopard and elephant roam freely.
Join Edwin on a 3 day adventure, enjoy bush stories around the campfire and discover why conservation is so
  important in preserving our natural heritage for future generations to enjoy.
 
The course is conducted by Edwin Cruywagen, who spent his whole life in the bush. 
Learning from the Matabele in Zimbabwe, the San-people in the Kalahari, the Ovambo- and
Namibia, he is one of the last Wild Rangers in South Africa!
Realizing the need to teach the next generation of Game Rangers, he created his own bush school as well as an
anti poaching school.
 
  The course will be held at Amukela Game Lodge rondavel.jpg (11732 bytes)

 
  Although roughing it in the bush has it's charmes, you will spend the nights in typical     
  African rondawels with a kingsize bed and an en-suite bathroom.     
  With 4 rondawels there is space for a maximum of 8 trainee game rangers sharing.

  voices of Africa.
