Anyone interested in joining the group should meet at Mpenjati’s White House at 8.30am for 9am. Costs are R25 for adults and R15 for children and this includes the entrance fee to the reserve and a cup of tea or coffee after the walk. Cold drinks and bottled water will be on sale.The morning will start with an informative talk on bird identification.
