In this video I go for a camping adventure at the Midmar Dam at Howick near Pietermaritzburg in South Africa. It was a great place to camping with stunning views of the Dam in the background. I had a pleasant night here even thou we are starting to head into winter in South Africa.
I did some exploring of the Dam and found lots of boats anchored in the waters. Apart from camping there was also chalets that people could pay to stay in. I did not go into the chalets but I would like to try it one day as a comparison to camping at the dam. There were also many picturesque spots around the dam where families could have picnic's or spend the day relaxing at the dam.
For supper I cooked a favourite of mine which was lamb chops in a chutney and I also tried out a new beer for me. If you would like to make this at home you can follow the method I used to make it.
All in it was a relaxing night with great views, the next morning I had to get up early because I wanted to attend the Royal show which was held in Pietermaritzburg. So that it where I ended the video.
Be sure to check out Night two which will be my next video.

Hey Sumeran, great work at keeping your videos authentic and entertaining. You will definitely be an inspiration to those who don’t normally do stuff that you do like camping and general nature stuff. Aside from that, you’re reviving great childhood memories for some of us ex-Durbanites 😊 Keep it up bud!

I grew up spending my weekends here in the 80's and 90's as a child and teen.Midmar is huge.The yacht club,where all the boats are stored ,owners can rent space and if you're over 18 you could rent out boats.Those are boat storage you are correct. We always camped further into the park .It's one of the best places to spend a week or weekend. Calm and peaceful. Wonderful video. Thank you

Hi I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Midmar. I also did a night at the camp spot where I think you are talking about further into the park right close up to the water. I am glad you enjoyed my video 😁

Good one Sumeran. Can't wait to watch the 2nd night's stay. Keep it coming bru. Just to consider, you should get yourself a large ground sheet to place beneath your tent. It helps with moisture resistance and condensation management. Also acts as a barrier between the ground and tent floor to prevent it from damage as a result of any sharp objects.

Hello, I'm glad you enjoyed my video😁. I actually had a tent before that was on its last leg, so I cut the floor off it, which is basically a big tarp. I just need to find it somewhere in my house. Thanks for reminding me.

Hey Sumeran. Loved the video. I hope your chutney wasn't too sour. You used those sour tomatoes. Just curious where about in Durban are you from? I'm thinking Toti. And what work do you do if you don't mind me asking? You don't have to answer if you don't want to. My family enjoys watching your videos and we're curious about where you're from and what you do. Looking forward to the next video! Keep up the good work!

When I went there, it seemed fine. This campsite was near to the entrance, so there were a lot of people passing by, and there were other people around, so it didn't feel like I was alone. There is also a second camp site more inside but that one was not busy.
