GR8R Ranaka Sunrise Walk
Start your Sunday morning outdoors.
The GR8R Ranaka Sunrise Walk is a casual community walk for anyone who enjoys exploring, walking, and discovering new places.
We’ll meet before sunrise and head out on a route of about 10km around Ranaka, taking time to enjoy the landscape, document the journey, and connect with fellow outdoor enthusiasts.
This isn’t a race and it isn’t a guided hiking tour.
It’s simply an opportunity to spend a few hours outdoors, explore a new route, meet new people, and enjoy Botswana’s natural beauty.
Whether you’re a regular walker, a weekend hiker, or simply looking for something different to do on a Sunday morning, you’re welcome to join us.
