Create your own Arrangement

Design your own “package” by choosing one or more of the options for activities listed in our Activities section. Once you have decided on what to do during your stay at Aurum Lodge, let us know if you want us to contact the individual operators and inform you of the total cost or make reservations for you. Note that most operators will require a deposit when an activity is booked. Activities are generally carried out irrespective of the weather, as long as it is safe to do so.
