Forge and CapeNature: What is a digital mapping partner and why is it important?
Forge has been CapeNature's official digital mapping partner since 2021, ensuring visitors receive accurate and engaging maps during their stay at nature reserves. Forge's maps are hand-curated and updated in collaboration with CapeNature, reflecting changes in landscapes, infrastructure, and trail closures. The partnership also empowers visitors by bridging the gap between them and trail managers.
Nature Camp Concessionaire Opportunity
CapeNature has identified an opportunity for a concessionaire to provide facilitated overnight camps for adults and/or children at its dorm and conferencing venues at selected reserves. To this end, CapeNature invites bidders to provide a business proposal to include ideas and concepts for the implementation and running of nature camps at CapeNature. Bidders should have at least 3 years’ experience in running events and camps of this nature.
New quirky series gives you the lowdown on how to Respect Nature
Ever booked accommodation or a camp site at a CapeNature reserve? Then you would know that we try to equip you as best we can before your arrival with lots of information. Amongst these would be the do’s and don’ts when in a nature reserve. However, not all of us are avid readers and sometimes these very important messages get lost in emails. The result is that we still find visitors littering, starting illegal fires and trespassing a number of “rules”.
