Hi Folks, Have you checked out the map lately on the Overland Bound One app? I’ve started loading campsites etc and would like to encourage you to do the same please! The more data we load the more useful the app becomes. You can also load tracks with GPX files if you didn’t know Go check it...

I do lots of extended trips but we're considering going full-time overlanding (my wife and I). I'd like to get some first-hand feedback from current full-timers on their experiences with towing (off-road trailer) vs. rig-only. I currently have a Toyota Fortuner (similar to a 4Runner), fully...

The Central Kalahari Game Reserve, or CKGR, is located in central Botswana. This is the largest and by far the most remote reserve in southern Africa and the second largest in the world. It covers a whopping 52,000 square km. Crossing the Central Kalahari has been a long-time dream of mine...

Hi Folks, Looking at the map and some of the posts, it looks like there are at least a few South Africans here. Please chime in; who's here, where are you from and since there hasn't been one yet, would you be interested in an SA meetup? Cheers, Christoff
