Tracks 4 Africa

Tracks4Africa (T4A for short) is a NON-PROFIT organization run by ‘Environmental users’.  Their core purpose is MAPPING AFRICA. What’s the main focus? The main focus is the GPS mapping of eco-destinations in rural and remote Africa. Outdoor activities including hiking, mountaineering, mountain biking, river rafting, scuba diving, bird watching, flower viewing, paragliding, skydiving and the off-road users (the bikers, the quad’ers and the 4x4 people), all have an environmental impact on the diversity of plant and animal life.

Eco-mapping requirements are of utmost importance given the increase in human traffic to eco-destinations. Most of these destinations are outside the National Parks, Nature Reserves and Protected Areas, and as such, they don’t enjoy the relative benefits of research, legislation and access control. Moreover, many of these destinations are home to historical, cultural and religious heritage.  The responsibility for protection and preservation of our environment rests with ‘Environmental users’.
