Day 85 – South Africa, Albert Falls National Reserve – Tuesday 21st August – 210 kms
We continued riding East, making our way toward Drakensberg. It was still to far to make it in one go.
I had found this campsite and resort through iOverlander again. It had rave reviews, with wild animals roaming around, so we decided to check it out. The place was around a big lake. We got there relatively early afternoon.
Once again it was to going to be another surreal place!
The accommodation was half price as it was low season. So we got a big rondavel with kitchen and everything we needed for only 460 rands (about 32 US dollars !).
Reception was at the entrance of the reserve, while the rondavels were good 7 kms away. We rode to our accommodation, surrounded by many antelopes and zebras. It was amazing.
Once settled in our rondavel, we went for a walk and realised, from a sign, that the Reserve also had white rhinos! I was amazed we were allowed in with the bikes as well as allowed to walk around on our own!
We were the only guests. All the other rondavels were empty; only the 2 of us and wild animals for company.
