Louw van Zyl, owner and outfitter for Track A Trail Safaris has got hunts available for 2014.
We will hunt 2 areas(community based hunting areas). This mean that local communities benefit directly from hunting, they receive all the meat as well as money. These areas are closely monitored by the Ministry of environment and Tourism as well as WWF. We get Quota settings each year regarding species to be hunted and the numbers.
One area, Uukolonkadhi-Ruacana borders Angola, the local town is Ruacana. The area is west of Ruacana allong the Kunene River and also east towards Oshakati(Namibia), also south(100km) of Ruacana, the total area is about 300 000ha with no fences. For this big area we get one trophy elephant, one Crocodile, two Oryx, two Kudu, 3 steenbok and 2 duiker. Game is not as abundant, we share this with local farmers in the area farming livestock and crops. Game are there, but this is quite a hard hunt, but a good challenge for those hunters that want to hunt in non fenced areas, but yes, good hunting, long walking etc. Accomodation will be in a comfortable tented fly camp with hot water and toilets and most of what one will need to have a very good time.!
The second area, Uukwaluudhi Hunting Conservancy, borders south of the Uukolonkadhi Conservancy with a total of 90 000ha not fences, with a fenced "Core area" of 7000ha. Most of the game is in the core area due to the fact that we also have many local farmers(subsistence). Game was relocated into this area to bring wildlife back and to benefit communities via hunting and tourism. Black rhino is also on this area, but only to look at, no hunting. Here we have one Elephant, springbok, Black Face Impala, Red hartebeest, Oryx, eland, Giraffe and Burchells zebra and some kudu, warthog and some spotted hyena.
A superb lodge will be the accommodation(Big safari tents), all with a view over vast savanna plains and Mopane bushveld. Swimming pool, each tent has its own shower and toilet and electricity.
Both areas are mainly Mopane trees and open savanna, with a bit more denser north. It offers good hunting, all on foot, walk and stalk, even the fenced area is big enough without feeling fenced in!!!!!!
Other stuff to see within a 300km radius: Epupa and Ruacana waterfalls(kunene river), river rafting, some fishing, local interesting tribes(ovahimba), Etosha National Park. So, there are plenty to do and see for the hunters and non hunters if you like to combine extra activities etc.
From Windhoek(Capital for Namibia) it is a 7.5 hour drive, or to save on driving, take a scheduled flight with Air Namibia for around 400US$(return flight) to Ondangwa, here we will pick you up and you only have a 2 hour drive to get there.
Both areas will be hunted to give clients the best hunting opportunities. We will concentrate on these two areas.
