Outdoor Adventure Centre
The Outdoor Adventure Centre operates from the Letsatsing Game Park
directly adjacent to the Sun City complex and bordering the Pilanesberg
National Park. Designed to appeal to those who enjoy extending their
minds and bodies, the centre offers an African outdoor adventure. The
Adventure Centre offers Quad Bike adventure trails for adults and
youngsters, clay target shooting, archery and drum circles.
The Quad Bike
Quad Bikes are rough and ready vehicles that excel at tackling hard
terrain and the bushveld. They handle the arid and volcanic landscape
of the Pilanesberg and allow adventurers to explore hidden crevices and
ravines that are inaccessible on foot. The adventure trail takes about
an hour and a highly skilled guide conducts the trail through
Letsatsing Game Park with the possibility of seeing Rhino, Giraffe and
other animal species on route. Internationally accepted safety
standards apply and no previous experience is needed as instruction in
handling the vehicle forms part of the package. The adventure is not
available to anyone under 16. There is a fully supervised circuit event
for youngsters.
Clay Target Shooting
An elegant and noble sport that becomes addictive as you master the
art. You will be surprised at the ease with which you become proficient
in shooting the clay targets out of the sky, even when they are
propelled into the air from different directions at quicker intervals.
Instructors guide participants and there is no need for previous
experience. This is restricted to 20 participants at a time. Clay
Target shooting is extremely popular with companies organising
corporate events or team building events.
Archery
Discover this ancient art that conjures up images of William Tell, the
Roman Empire and Scottish highlanders. Archers of yesteryear used
rudimentary equipment whereas today the equipment is more modern and
sophisticated. At the Sun City Adventure Centre modern recurve bows and
contemporary equipment such as compound bows and powerful crossbows are
used. Archery is about muscle discipline, eye dominance, and accuracy.
Target practise makes perfect or so the experts say.
Drumming
For centuries drumming has formed part of the African culture. Rituals,
celebrations, funerals, healing and initiation ceremonies are marked by
the rhythmic beat of drums. Enjoy the interactive rhythms of Africa by
taking part in a drum circle and learn to play the Djembe Drum. Music
is the universal language, and drumming is the bridge between spectator
and participant. It's primal, heartfelt pulse stirs the senses, making
your foot tap in time to the beat. Anyone can be a competent drummer
with almost no prior experience. Drumming brings people together who
share the connection of making music together. The Adventure Centre
offers guests an excellent manner of communing with a group of people,
enjoying the energetic rhythms of Africa.
