Tracking on Foot: Learning Bush Skills

Forget the engine – here you enter silence.

In the vast plains of Botswana, local trackers guide you on foot through the wilderness. Step by step, you discover the secrets of nature: the track of a big cat, the scent of a medicinal plant, a still-warm animal den. In the end, it’s your turn: you apply what you have learned yourself. This is not just a simple walk, but an immersion into a living world.

Tracking is one of the oldest human skills—and in Botswana, it is still alive. The local guides not only demonstrate, they teach you to observe, reflect, and understand. In which direction did the animal go? Is the track fresh? Does this path lead to a waterhole or a shelter? Following the trackers means reading a world expressed in signs, sounds, and silence. A unique way to connect with nature.
