3. Mountain Biking : For the active traveler, we offer guided mountain bike tours across the plateau—a thrilling way to see the landscape and its wildlife.

4. Anti-Poaching K9 Unit Visits : Meet the conservancy’s bloodhounds and their handlers. You can participate in a “demonstration” to see how these dogs track scents to protect the rhinos and elephants.
