Whichaway camp
“Amazing hikes, divine drink from the snow bar, delicious food and warm hospitality. I'm already looking forward to my next trip.”
South Africa
Whichaway Camp is unique and the perfect place from which to base your adventure. There are six state-of-the-art sleeping pods that are heated and designed for two people in each. At just over 6m (20ft) in diameter, they are also spacious, with a writing desk, wash area and toilet.
The rest of the camp comprises a shower pod, kitchen and three centralised pods that make up the reception, lounge and dining room. While the exterior is made from cutting edge materials, the interior has an old-world feel with rich textures. Here you can relax and enjoy the food from our award-winning chef.

EMPEROR PENGUIN COLONY
Two hours' flight in a Basler BT-67 from our main camp and you are at a site of more than 6,000 penguins and their young chicks. Both are totally unafraid of humans and will come within a few meters of our group, immersing you in the noise, commotion and the sheer beauty of it all. This is one of the greatest – and yet least observed – wildlife events on the planet.
