Zvakanaka farm is located on the south-facing slopes of the eastern Soutpansberg. To get there travel north along the N1 for approximately 11km from Makhado (formerly Louis Trichardt) and 1km after the Inn on Louis Trichardt, is a turn-off to the right to Witvlag.
Zvakananka camp site, with its wonderful mountain views, is situated down near the wetland, far from the cabin. Here Thick-billed and Golden Weavers make their nests, White-faced duck may fly past at dusk and dawn, the Long-Crested Eagle enjoys hunting in the grassland and the Gorgeous Bushrike tantalises all day.
The dawn chorus of birdsong across the wetland is rivalled only by the evening cacophony of birdsong including both species of Guineafowl, and the numerous Francolin, including Shelley’s.
There are two camps, William’s and Sam’s, named after our two employees who work on the farm and who helped to build them. The two camps share the ablution block consisting of four toilets and two showers.
Each of these has their own entrance and basin - no more brushing teeth rubbing elbows with a total stranger! The ablutions are unique.
The camp sites are fully electrified, the showers’ hot water is heated by both an electric geyser, and a donkey boiler - there’s no shortage of hot water.
The two camp sites are quite far apart and each camp is carefully designed for maximum privacy.
