Where to go?

Postby Tjoek » Thu Aug 02, 2007 8:16 pm

Hi Guys,

I need ideas of where one can find a holiday place that meets the following requirements:

1. Chalets or Camping sites, close to nature.
2. Enough for Mom and small kids to do
3. Nearby runway from where dad can do his thing (hangers will be bonus)
4. Not too far from Gauteng.

Let those ideas role! :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

There must be some lekka places in the Waterberg. Get hold of Bushpig. I think he could point you into the right direction.

Regards,
Arnulf

You can go to Thipise.There are warm water swimming pools,a lot to do for kids,game park,horses,a runway(no hangers),and lots more.
Thipise is just north of Louis Trichardt but worth the travelling.

Nico,

Thanks for the feedback. Looks great. How far is the runway from the resort?

The runway is about 500m from the last challet.You must arrange with the resort to give you a key to the runway-they keep the gates locked.The runway is inside the Tshipese game park.I do not know what's the current state of the runway.It is better of you phone them before you go there.Tel no is:015 5390634.
