Mapungubwe In The 79 Series: Camping at Mazhou Campsite - Overlanding in South Africa

I finally get to explore the magical Mapungubwe!
Both sides of the park are amazing and camping in the new 79 series Landcruiser setup is just perfect! The canopy system has made a massive difference to the overall experience!
The Mazhou campsite is officially the favorite South African campsite!! Camping here is simply incredible! Shade is plentiful and the wildlife in camp makes it so special!
Tag along as we go on an adventure past Elephants, Baobabs, the Tshugulu Eco Trail and some of the most breath taking landscapes in the world!
Wildlife photographers, Overlanders, Landscape photographers - THIS PLACE IS FOR YOU!!

    We were also in Mapungubwe some years ago. We travelled also with our 79 Cruiser and a Conqueror Commander. It was an awesome experience and at Mazhou camp I experienced what it is like to wake up in The Garden of Eden or Paradise as in the bible book Genesis. The bird songs were incredible.

    Beautiful video. Yes, meat and meat sound good. You give valuable information on the distance between the western and eastern sides. Mapungubwe is a magical place. I have only been to the eastern side, as our stay at Leokwe was very short. Sadly, the field and mopani trees are totally over grazed. The baobab trees are destroyed by all too many elephants. They have wire around the stems, but it was left too long. We specifically went to see if we could tow our caravan to the park. We were shocked to see the state of the roads. I never imagined that the N1 would have so many dangerous potholes, which makes one wonder why we pay toll on the road. Personally, I would not suggest towing a road caravan on either of the roads.

    Great video! Great memories, we got engaged there last year on the lookout deck. The hide is just the best, had elephants come right up to the hide to drink the freshest water, was breathtaking!
