Outland Travel
The finest crafted cycling tours and walking experiences in Southern Africa’s most spectacular and remote wilderness
Southern Africa boasts the world’s most exquisite destinations for incredible cycling and walking adventures in Africa– now it’s time for you to really see it. Trekking, walking and cycling tours put the brakes on our human urge to do everything faster.
By slowing down the pace of exploration, we are actually able to soak up the unique and remote wonder of the paths less travelled.
Walking and Cycling adventures in Africa are not only things to do, but become an addiction to quench once the beauty and wonder of Africa is experienced on these active safari adventures. Southern Africa’s gems, namely, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and the lesser know Eswatini are all beckoning to be explored.
Our mission is to craft eternal memories on these active travel, walking or cycling tours within our diverse wilderness, both on and off the bike. We don’t believe in choosing between relishing the journey or the destination; with Outland Travel, you can have it all and then some.

Hills and valleys of sand stretching as far as the eye can see in all directions…
This 8-night trail runs through the remote expanse of Namibia's central area. A wide open expanse wilderness dotted with rocky outcrops and dry river beds. It offers a wild gravel riding experience as we make our way over from the mountains of Erongo and Spitzkoppe, over the open plains of Uis and on the wild reaches of the Damaraland, home to the desert elephants and lions. Journeying by bike opens a new perspective to the intrepid rider, allowing us to get to places not often seen by tourists. And once we find ourselves at any one of our serene overnight camps, the days riding will make the sundowner drink even sweeter.
The Namib desert isn’t heaven but it’s damn close. Starting in Namibia’s Erongo bushveld, we traverse the formidable desert plains en route to the coastal town of Swakopmund. Free-camping brings us to legendary locations like Spitzkoppe and the Khan River. The bustle of the city is a million miles away as we soak in spectacular African sunsets and bask in the starlight of a milky way uncorrupted by light pollution. Keep a sharp eye out for the elusive desert wildlife, like the iconic oryx antelope or the sly brown hyena. As we conclude our trip in Swakopmund, enjoy the feast of a traditional meal to reward your tired muscles.
Note: The Namib Trail has a predetermined point-to-point route and for this reason, we can not adjust the type or length of riding. However, a back-up vehicle is always on hand.

The Lower Zambezi valley offers you an undiluted African experience for your cycle-safari.
We can’t think of a better adventure than the truly wild Zambezi Trail. Starting at the iconic Victoria Falls, traversing the length of the Zambezi to the magnificent Lower Zambezi Valley, with a journey across the entire Lake Kariba for good measure. This point-to-point journey is not a biking holiday, it’s an epic journey that very few have made before. With the river as our constant companion, we’ll ride through beautiful local villages, along the top of gorges, spend a night ferrying across a lake, and ending in a valley teeming with wildlife. Join us on the Zambezi Trail to enjoy epic rides through the unknown corners of the Zambezi, and earn every one of the unbelievable sunsets we have along the way.
Footpaths and dirt roads span between the Zambezi and Kafue rivers as we move between villages and farms. Keep an eye out for the wildlife as we employ the service of local community ponts to cross the water. We also explore the world-famous Mana Pools National Park along the wild southern banks of the Zambezi. Relive the memories of the day with newfound friends while you drift down the river with a G ‘n T or maybe try your hand at nabbing a tiger fish…that is if the resident wildlife don’t beat you to it. Replenish your energy stores each evening as we retire to the luxury of our river-side lodge.
Note: As our experiences are curated for you, the skill and endurance ratings are an indication only and can be adjusted to your needs.
