The most important facts at a glance
Some lodges in various regions of southern Africa feature a sleep-out deck with a sky bed. Here, you sleep on a specially constructed wooden platform several meters above ground level in a bed amidst the wildlife-rich wilderness. There are no walls or roof; instead, you are covered by the sea of stars of the African bush. As your safety is paramount, a lodge guide always sets up his night camp a few meters away on the ground.
Sky Bed Highlights:
- Sleep in a real bed but under the open sky
- Surrounded by pure wilderness
- Sleep at a safe height and be accompanied by a guide
- Listen to the nightly bush concert or enjoy the total silence
- Marvel at the endless expanse of the fascinating African night sky
The best time to travel
At the sky bed, you often arrive late in the afternoon or even after dinner. This gives you some time either to spot some animals in the surrounding area from your elevated position or to encounter the starry night sky later in the evening. In any case, look forward to an overwhelming safari experience that you will surely never forget.
