ABOUT
Guided by a world expert Rockjumper Birding Tour leader, we will explore the beautiful 650ha Hilton College Nature Reserve in an open safari vehicle. As we head down to the Umgeni River we will stop and walk the most productive sections no doubt amassing a significant bird list. Your leader will be carrying a Zeiss telescope allowing great views of any perched birds and several pairs of Zeiss binoculars will be available for loan (please book in advance). Numerous sought-after bird species can be expected, possibilities include Crowned and Martial Eagle, Southern Tchagra, Olive Bushshrike and Lazy Cisticola. Expect approx. 2km of walking, mostly on flat or downhill trails/roads. A contribution will be made to the nature reserve from each ticket sold.
