Camping for South Africans is not so much a fun holiday idea as it is a tradition. We are fortunate to have so many stretches of vast, untouched wilderness that make the perfect base to set up camp, light a braai, and take in the reprieve from the usual chaos of city life. As April’s Easter Weekend (the first of four long weekends this year) speedily approaches, perhaps it’s due time to start planning a camping trip to one of these peaceful, pristine and breathtaking spots.

Beaverlac, Cederburg

Nestled in a valley of the Cederburg, Beaverlac Camping site is sprawled along the river that runs through it. The shelter from surrounding mountains makes it the perfect spot to sit back and relax for a few days. The river and various rock pools make it great for children to explore the rugged natural environment, plus this spot is pet friendly!

Bontle, Marakele National Park

Bontle Camping Site is the epitome of “the middle of nowhere” – perfect for those who want the ultimate off grid escape. It lies in the heart of the bushveld in the Marakele National Park, and its Setswana name literally means, “beautiful.” The sunrises and sunsets in this stark landscape are truly unmissable.

Cape Vidal, Isimangaliso Wetland Park

Cape Vidal lies not only mere meters from the beach, but within the Isimangaliso Wetland Park, a World Heritage Site due to its prolific bird life and pristine coastline, a paradise for snorkelers! The site only offers 50 spots so booking is essential, and we guarantee that the natural scenery here is simply unmatched.

De Hoop, Richtersveld Transfrontier Park

This is the ideal spot for those wanting to reconnect with nature in its purest form. De Hoop has no electricity or hot water, but the desert-like landscape hides a surprising array of wildlife, including plants, birds and animals of all shapes and sizes.

Ebb and Flow, Garden Route National Park

Ebb and Flow lies in the Wilderness region of the sprawling Garden Route National Park, and is the epitome of lush. Aside from the dense greenery, the campsite offers a wide host of activities, including forest hikes on the mountainside, as well as canoeing and whale watching along the coastline.

Fiddlers Creek Rest Camp, Orange River

The Orange River cuts a jagged horizontal line through South Africa and is the longest river in the country. Fiddlers Creek sits on its lush banks, and is the perfect getaway to enjoy all river-related activities, from 4×4 trails to swimming and, of course, mandatory river rafting.

Mazhou, Mapungubwe National Park

Mapungubwe National Park flourished as an African Kingdom between 900 and 1300 AD, and is currently a UNESCO World Heritage Site. While traversing through the wilderness and ancient relics of the park, Mazhou Camping Site offers an overnight stop with space for 10 tents.

Pyper se Boom, Tankwa Karoo National Park

You’ll need a 2×4 or 4×4 to access it, but once reached, Pyper se Boom is a welcome respite amid the vastness of the park. The park itself has no tar roads or shops, so be sure to arrive prepared, however homely comforts are soon forgotten with visitors reporting frequent sightings of wildlife, including tortoises and Oryx.

Camping offers the ultimate mental and physical reset. Venturing into the sparseness of nature and escaping the mayhem and stresses of day to day life is not only a holiday, but an essential chance to completely turn off. We hope one of these local suggestions will be perfect for your next wilderness respite!

Packing your hospital bag for a labor and delivery experience can initially seem overwhelming and simply scary. All of those feelings are totally normal…at least they were for me. I promise you, if you don’t pack a bag for whatever reason, you will be just fine. However, if you try to be 10 steps ahead like me, there are some essential items I would recommend packing. I’ve compiled a list to take some of those scary and overwhelming feelings away from you as you prepare for your new arrival!

Although Kinsley made her grand entrance 4 weeks early, I did happen to have my hospital bag packed and ready to grab-and-go…like I said…10 steps ahead 🙂 Here are the items I felt were the most essential for my experience (I’ve even linked the exact ones I used):

1.A Good Bag

I use my Stella and Dot bag for everything. I love it because it has the option to expand in order to make the bag larger. It has a front pocket, an inside zip pocket, and 3 other storage pockets inside. Super easy to organize and carry!

2. Essential Loungewear

• Every new momma needs a good robe for the hospital. Personally, I would suggest a lightweight robe over a big fluffy robe just for comfortability reasons of being in a small hospital bed. I found my robe at Macy’s and absolutely love it! I still use it at night when I wake up to nurse.
• Sweatpants and/or shorts are an absolute must. I picked up 2 new cozy jogger-type pajama pants that were life changing. After birth (vaginal or c-section), you are uncomfortable in your lower region…the greatest feeling for me was changing out of my hospital gown into these pants.
• If you plan on packing any shirts, make sure they are soft, comfortable, and nursing friendly (if you plan on nursing). I grabbed a couple Henley shirts American Eagle that were button-down, but didn’t end up using them in the hospital because my preference was nursing tanks under my robe.
• Get yourself an awesome pair of non-skid slipper socks or legit slippers. I registered for these slippers and absolutely love them. I still wear them daily around the house because I am a freak about slipping on my hardwood floors with Kins.

3. Toiletries

Obviously you want your essentials- toothbrush, toothpaste, hairbrush, dry shampoo, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, face wash, and any skincare products you normally use. However, I also was glad I packed these:

• Makeup remover towels
• Deodorant wipes
• Chapstick
• Hand lotion
• Basic Makeup (for that photo-op)

4. Postpartum Products

The hospital provides you with some really great essentials, so you don’t have to pack much. They give you pads, ice packs, tucks pads, mesh underwear, perineal spray bottle, and ibuprofen. I also found it very helpful to bring these:

• Depends (way more comfortable and user-friendly than the mesh panties). Grab these ones, they are super soft and comfortable. I actually enjoyed wearing them…weird?
• Nipple Cream– the hospital had me pumping right away and after every feeding, so needless to say, my girls needed some extra love. I’ve used two kinds so far and love them both. Here they are→
• Nursing Tanks and/or Nursing Bras– SO necessary. I packed both, but just lived in my nursing tanks under my robe and it worked out wonderfully. I grabbed my nursing tanks off Amazon and my favorite nursing bras from Kindred Bravely. Worth every penny!

5. Wish List

Some things I wish I would have brought with me that I didn’t end up bringing to the hospital would include:

• Pillow from home (hospital pillows are so flat and uncomfortable)
• Cozy blanket (hospital blankets are just so stiff)
• Boppy or nursing pillow of your choice to make that process more comfortable and natural feeling
• Quick & easy snacks

I’m sure some of you expert mommies have some hospital bag essentials that I missed or overlooked. Please feel free to share them with me! I’d love to know what you found essential for the hospital!
