Packing List

 

The clothing that you choose to wear is of great importance and essential to avoid premature detection whilst stalking game.

May through to August are our winter months and occasionally it can get very cold, so bring warm clothing and gloves during this period. The rest of the year, shorts and short-sleeved shirt's will suffice, but early mornings and evening's, can be quite cool, pack both light and heavy clothing, clothing that can be worn in layers.

Please note for leopard hunting - the clothing that is worn while sitting in a blind should be of such fiber that do not chafe or make a rustling noise when slight movement takes place. No white clothing, is to be worn, three changes, of green, khaki or brown shirts and trousers, made from cotton rather than synthetic fibers, would be more comfortable and suitable.

As hunting is done on foot, we suggest a good pair of comfortable hunting boots (not new, preferably worn in) in a dark color, ankle high, plus at least four (4) pairs of socks.
