Sharon Deal
Gecko Rock is an eco-destination for all outdoor lovers. There is minimal accommodation so there is much peace and tranquility. Family, friends and enthusiasts love it here as it is a space to BE. To do all the thing sone loves without crowds of people. That is why it is commonly referred to as a little pice of heaven earth.
I am a transformational coach that loves life and people. I enjoy interacting with people of all walks and particularly love to challenge them to live life authentically and purposefully creating their destiny not being interpreters of it. We as family made a lifestyle choice to live in the karoo. We now share this with other outdoor lovers.
At Gecko Rock, Hiking, 4 x 4 , 4 x 2, Camping, Abseiling, Shooting, Mountain Biking, Climbing, Stargazing, photography to name a few. Great family time, connecting with each other. In the area, hunting, game drives etc
