Sunday, May 1, 2022 - 07:30Dear BLB member,Our next walk will take place on Sunday 1st May at the Metsimotlhaba River near Kumakwane . This will be the first of our winter walks, so we meet and leave Molapo Crossing at 07:30. The later time is to make allowance for the later rising of the sun and so that you can have an extended lie-in. So, we are going on the walk even though it is a public holiday. As usual, beginners are welcome and remember to bring your binoculars, folding chairs and refreshments for after the walk. Read More
