Firm family favourites

Family camping trips can be tricky. Sitting around a campsite all day, content with taking in and appreciating the natural beauty while you do nothing more exhausting than simply relaxing and staring into the campfire, is not everybody’s cup of tea. Some campers – especially the younger generation and the little ones – prefer plenty of action, activities and facilities to keep them busy. It is precisely because they have so much to offer visitors that Forever Resorts are so popular. With resorts spread across the country there is something to suit everyone’s taste. In addition, they bear the stamp of approval from Rikus Truter, of Lekker Kampplekke.

R&R for all ages

Louis and Elsie Krouwkamp are enthusiastic campers who pack their caravan as often as possible for a relaxing weekend away from the concrete jungle. They especially enjoy the retirement weeks at Rust Oord Bosveld Camp, and share their experience with readers.

The elite of the eastern cape

South Africa is a camper’s paradise, with beautiful camping spots scattered across all nine provinces. Whether you want to trade the hustle and bustle of everyday life for picturesque mountains, relaxing riverbanks or have calming ocean waves soothe you to sleep, there is an option for everyone. However, deciding where to book your next getaway can get a little overwhelming. To help narrow down the numerous options, Rikus Truter from Lekker Kampplekke shares some of his favourites in the Eastern Cape.

Find your utopia

You know you’re relaxing at a lekker campsite if you dread having to pack up and go home. For Rikus Truter of Lekker Kampplekke, Utopia in Swellendam is such a destination.

Bergenwater- Lekker for a reason!

With the continuous rising fuel price, it’s important to track down campsites that are not too far from home – especially if you, like Rikus Truter from Lekker Kampplekke, starts suffering from withdrawal symptoms if you can’t pitch your tent somewhere for more than a week or so.
