- Our second episode of the Kgalagadi and Mabuasehube Series, Lions in our Camp!, is here!
Watch us and @Edward Bath take on the Nossob to Mabuasehube trail, towing our trailers through the thick sand!
We don't quite make it to the halfway camps along the Boso Trail, and we have to wild camp overnight to avoid driving in the dark. Little did we know, this stop would produce one of the most memorable lion experiences ever!
Testament to the fact that you should only go to Mabuasehube with a rooftop tent
This was 40km from Nossob! Closer to Nossob than Mabua! But true, anything other than ground tent is ok!
That Lion sighting alone deserves 3+Million views it is a shame only 3000+ views. Awesome video.
Thanks! We hope the views will still get there 🤩
Amazing ..Great Video guys ..Thank‘s 🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁
Our pleasure! Thank you so much!
Frankly, that experience out there in the bush all alone looked scary as much as it must have been exhilarating. Wow, guys, awesome. Shot for the vids. Lekkker!
Thanks so much! We were not scared even once to be honest, the lions did not give off any sort of threatening vibe at all!
Flip! That was EPIC indeed 🤩 Especially that clip of the male walking down the two-track towards you… Amazing to see his black front feet 🤯
Thanks Villiers! His black socks we called them 😂 really incredible experience 😍
@@EpicAfrica, this is why we do it, isn’t it?! 🙌🏻⛺️🦁
The lions in camp wow Africa is wild this episode next level Epic
yup! Africa is epic!
Awesome episode. Bought back memories of some of our trips where we stayed Rooiputs then went to Motopi between Nossop and Mabuasehube and then went through to Khiding pan for a few days and then back. Absolutely awesome area and I can’t wait to go back!
Agree! Amazing area and trip!
We are so enjoying your Trips, thanks for Sharing .

This is incredible. EPIC event. Loved all the episodes. I have booked 3 weeks at Kgalagadi next year. Mabuasehube would be next in target. With kids it would have been a great experience for you. Waiting for the next episode.

Thank you!
Great video! Pity about the the terrible music... never heard that in the Kgalagadi..... must be something new.
Thanks and glad you enjoyed it 🙌🏻
Play with them with a laser light.
Haha that would be funny but it was amazing to watch them interacting and playing like little kitties
Did you see them coming or you were already sleeping? I wonder if you guys ever have late dinners or braai, or there is specific time for bed
No we didn't see them coming we were already in bed and sleeping, they only pulled into camp around 2am. We always get the kids off to bed before dark but we don't have a set time for bed.
I am more interested in the female of the pride
She was on the move a lot
I guess you were lucky you were all in bed already. Not really sure what would have happened if they would have visited you while the kids were still out. Would have they come if there was light, a campfire and a few people? Light did not scare them away but would have kept them away? Did you learn anything from that experience? It must have been an amazing encounter. I'm a bit jealous to be honest. I have had my fare share of hyenas like all of us, I guess, but not lions.... except in Savuti while hunting a buffalo at full speed.
We think they were around all evening but did not venture into the camp while we were up. We were lucky to have the experience! Animals coming into camp in the wild are a possibility day or night. We try to stay aware and teach our kids the same. Our girls do not wander off, and are in bed when it gets dark for the most part. If they had come we would have jumped in the car or BushLapa. They were not threatening us in anyway, just curious!
Hi .....what camera and lens are you using?
On this trip I was using my Canon 250D with EF 100-400 and a GoPro Hero 9
What did you do with your MTB?
We used it to exercise / train On a smart trainer with an offline app :)
What is his name
I am unsure if he has a name as he is a wild animal
