Project Location
A private reserve in Hoedspruit, South Africa and close to the renowned Kruger National Park.

South Africa
On the Southernmost tip of Africa, South Africa is a country that provides a meeting point for many different cultures, giving you a taste of many flavors of Africa. South Africa boasts some of the worlds most amazing and abundant wildlife.

Your art course will take place to the West of the world-renowned Kruger National Park. You will experience the peaceful setting and beautiful backdrop of the Northern Drakensberg Mountains. The reserve is situated down a dirt track, 12km from the town of Hoedspruit, which is a small town located in the Limpopo Province of South Africa.

Free Time
This area of South Africa offers many opportunities to take part in a number of excursions, which would ensure that all African expectations are met. Being so close to Hoedspruit is a fantastic advantage on weekends. Volunteers visit the local bars and restaurants to relax, have a few drinks and enjoy the local food. South Africans are really friendly and you will find that you settle in quickly to the laid back lifestyle!

During your time at the project, you will have many opportunities to partake in the optional activities available within the local area. This is a great way to see more of your surroundings and experience adventures that will last you a lifetime. Some of these include:
    • Micro light flights over local Big 5 game reserves
    • Game drives on the adjacent private Big 5 reserves
    • Two-day trip including a sleep out, game drive and bush walk on a private Big 5 reserve
    • Two-day trip including a sleep out at a hide in the Kruger National Park
    • Boat cruises on the Blyde River dam
    • Daytrip to view the Panorama route
    • Abseiling and caving, water sports (boat rides/skiing/tubing) and swimming at Klaserie dam (summer months only)
    • Lunches and suppers at the local restaurants and pubs
Please Note: All of these activities are at your own expense. They are extremely affordable and can be booked on a weekly basis.
