A weekend on a private Game Farm in the Waterberg near Vaalwater. Jonathan will be leading walks and giving talks to guests of the private game farm. This is a unique oppurtunity to meet and spend some time with a leading expert on southern African scorpions.

The weekends activities include.

In the Evening we'll go on a night drive to see the nighttime inhabitants of the Waterberg region. We'll unpack the UV Troches andsee what we can find at some prime scorpion habitats. On return a large fire will be waiting, red wine and camp fire stories.
