The Wild Rivers Traverse invites participants to join in the conservation journey of the Wild Rivers Private Nature Reserve and Bushriver Lodge, as they seek official nature reserve status amidst the rich biodiversity of South Africa’s Blyde Olifants Conservancy Association. By supporting this endeavor through the trail run, individuals directly contribute to protecting the vital confluence of the Blyde and Olifants rivers, crucial lifelines for both the reserves and the iconic Kruger National Park. This commitment to conservation includes rigorous adherence to government regulations, financial investments, and active wildlife management efforts such as species reintroduction and anti-poaching patrols. The trail run not only offers an unforgettable adventure amidst stunning landscapes but also represents a significant step towards preserving the natural beauty and diversity of these sanctuaries. Together, participants become stewards of these ecosystems, ensuring their continued thriving for future generations and underscoring the importance of conservation in safeguarding our planet’s heritage.
