Extreme
& Adventure Events
We
have acted as guides, scouts and outfitters with numerous
TV and Film Productions in the past, for instance
OLN TV one of the biggest Global Extreme Expedition
Company. Whether it's just scouting, guiding or acting
as an outfitter or even doing the logistics, meals
and accommodation this would be no problem.
Nowhere
in South Africa will you find a destination so vastly
different to what the rest of our country offers.
Nowhere will you find a destination with more contrasting
landscapes and surprises to please a visitor. Nowhere
in South Africa is there a place that can be even
remotely compared with the sheer magnificance and
stomach-turning eeriness of the Green Kalahari. Nowhere
in South Africa will you find a better venue to stage
your extreme and adventure events.
Khamkirri
Private Game Reserve organised and hosted numerous
extreme races and adventure events that were internationally
recognised. Our most recent was the 2003 Global Extreme:
South Africa event staged as a reality television
production for American TV.
Our
ability to do location hunting, negotiate agreements
with stakeholders, handle logistics and catering for
complicated extreme and adventure events in the Green
Kalahari region, is unsurpassed in South Africa.
Augrabies Extreme Marathon.
Khamkirri is the annual host for the
Augrabies Extreme Marathon. The marathon entails the
running on off-road tracks over a distance of 250
kilometers in 7 days. This marathon is the twin brother
of the very renowned and formidable “Marathon
–des- Sables” that is held in the Arab
Desert. Competitors enter from all over the globe
and also draw a lot of entries from foreign countries
such as Canada, Australia, France, Italy, and USA.

of the most competitive horse endurance races in SA.
During the 2nd week in August a huge amount of riders
and their horses flock to Khamkirri for this Endurance
race. This is the official qualifier for the South
African National Championship. This is a one day race

stamina and endurance, but also that of the rider.

The very well known American series ER Africa, was
shot on location at Khamkirri over a period of 5 weeks.
