Traversing the African veld in the company of these majestic giants is a rare privilege indeed. With ears flapping noisily, trunks swinging and the soft padding of huge feet this is an incredible experience. Following a carefully planned route through the reserve, gently amble across the bush getting closer to wildlife than is usual. Antelope, zebra and wildebeest will continue to graze unconcerned by the proximity of the elephants with their human companions atop.

Working closely with renowned elephant trainer Rory Hensmann and his team at the organisation Elephants for Africa Forever, these extensively trained elephants and their grooms offer the chance of a lifetime and with long- lasting memories guaranteed.

TRACKS

Thirteen trails have been laid out and individually rated on three different levels of difficulty

Endurance

The 11 km endurance trail is a huge attraction for the more advanced biker, two and four wheel.

Falt track

A 5.2 km Flat track will Test the Speed Junkies.

TANDEM SKYDIVE

Experience a Tandem skydive. A great introduction to the sport or an once off jump of a life time. After 10 mins of training, you will be in the aircraft for a scenic ride to altitude. Once we are at the top the door will open and you are on your way to a 35 second freefall. The instructor will open the parachute.. You will get to steer the parachute and prepare for a gentle landing. The entire experience is recorded onto a dvd that you can take home and share with friends and family (available within 45 minutes of landing).

STATIC LINE

After completing ground school (teaching you all you need to know for doing a solo jump). You will gear up with your own parachute. Once in the air you are hooked up to the plane. As you jump from 3,500ft the parachute is opened by your instructor. You land yourself with ground crew assistance. Min age 16 years with parental consent.

ACCELERATED FREEFALL (FAST ROUTE )

Learn how to Skydive over 3 days or 3 months. After completing ground school and your first Static Line jump you may enter the AFF Program. This program consists of ten levels where you jump with your own parachute from 10,000ft with a skydiving instructor by your side. They give you in-air assistance and instruction. You land your own parachute. All gear and instruction costs are included in the price ( you can pay per jump). There is a weight limit 100kg and a minimum age of 16 years with parental consent.Ground school will be done mid week in Nelspruit.

Please note that the maximum passenger weight that we can accommodate is 95 kg's if the passenger is relatively muscular. Under 18's require parental consent. We can take kids from about six years of age depending on the child’s readiness.   Jumpers must wear flat soled lace up shoes and comfortable clothing. Contact lenses and spectacles are not a problem. We will provide goggles and a jump suit that goes over the jumpers clothing. I do not recommend doing a tandem with a hangover and if you are prone to motion sickness then I suggest that you take the appropriate medication beforehand. In addition if you suffer from blocked sinus then I recommend that you take a decongestant beforehand.

Kwa Madwala has pioneered low level aerial game viewing flights and is one of the few places in Africa to offer such an experience. Using microlight aircraft which carry one person at a time and which afford near 360 degree views, this is possibly the ultimate safari viewing experience! The thrill of staring out across the African bush and down at the wildlife is one to savour and remember forever. These are views not possible from the 4X4 vehicle and the smiles on guest faces when returning from a flight is testament to the joy and freedom one feels when gliding over the African bush.

Equestrian safaris are extremely popular throughout Africa and provide an exciting addition to the many other safari activities Kwa Madwala offers.

Both beginner and intermediate horse trails wind through the reserve and indigenous bush passing rocky outcrops, river beds and exceptionally scenic terrain. You are likely to see antelope, giraffe, impala, zebra, waterbuck, wilderbeast and sometimes herds of wild elephant and rhino.
