Nyati Wilderness lies between Vaalwater and Ellisras. It is nestled in the beautiful Waterberg. It has two camps which are being extensively renovated. It caters for both eco-tourism and hunting. The one camp caters for 12 people and the other has 4 beautiful chalets overlooking a dam. It is priced so you can spend more on Avgas!
Self catering but they can cater on request. We had exceptional service from Ryno the manager, PH and also fixed wing and chopper pilot. Your plane is parked behind a electric fence and the strip is 1300m with a bit of fun to approach.

Highly recommended for a fly away, game viewing and relaxing at the pool.

Info available at their website www.nyatiwilderness.com.
