    We rode our bikes into the Tsitsikamma National Park. After lunch at the Cattle Baron Grille and Bistro, we took a nearby path to get to the suspension bridge. Lots of stairs, well maintained, up and down to get there. Beautiful bridge. Lovely views. A few hygrax , related to the elephant of all creatures, up on the rocks as we were crossing the bridge.

    This hike is absolutely spectacular, vistas around every corner and up every hill. Our guide Ashley was amazing, shared so much area knowledge, and generally was a pleasure to be around. He kept an eye on us, as my husband is 77, and I am 64, so we did not find the trail easy, however it felt like a major achievement at the end, and the whole experience was so worth it. The accommodation was top drawer, spa bath and jacuzzi for the sore muscles were a joy to behold. We enjoyed our stay in each one of the properties, food was great, and friendly people. I think its important to mention that you will enjoy this hike more if you have a reasonable level of fitness, however there is no rush so you can do it slowly but there is some rock scrambling which could be a challenge for some, but Ashley guided us expertly, so it was all good. I would also recommend trail shoes or hiking boots not trainers. If you are on the trail and it rains, the correct shoes could save twisting your ankle or hurting your knees. Walking stick/s are highly recommended. I loved every second of this hike, and will be back again.

    Great trail with awesome views.
    Need to be fit and no issues with knees and ankles. Ensure you have hiking poles and good boots.
    Saw whales 4 out off 5 days.
    Huts are well situated and sit on the beach.
    Used Burton (+27738006811) for slackpacking in respect of bags and food. Meat placed in 4 cooler bags and he brought a bag every day. Groceries placed in 1 big bag and he brought every day. Makes the whole experience better so you can ensure a braai and breakfast with friends and family.
    Something to look forward to after the hike.

    Beautiful scenery, rather challenging walk to the top, lots of photo opportunities and for those who are daring take a kayak ride.

    A fabulous area to hike in where the amazing flora will delight your senses. It is not a walk in the park so be prepared. The porterage is recommended as some hills are brutal and in full sun sapping your strength. Mosquitoes and trees lying on the paths put extra strain on your good mood so be warned. Extra water is needed to cool you down as there can be long stretches without water. Do not rely on the distance markers as they are frustratingly wrong. It is a damn long walk and just. Know that it is a 6-7 hour trudge each day with many ups and downs. Day 3 to the Heuningbos hut is the most strenuous. Day 4 is the longest but very pleasant. Use tea lights to start your fire..works like a dream and so pleasant sitting next to a fire after a hard days hike. The pools at Bloukrans hut are. With walking to after your hike. It is a short down walk and worth the effort. Conserve the tank water for cooking. The

    This adventure in the national park is a short visit to a tree 36 metre tall and 1000 years old.The visit to Tsitsikamma hanging bridge is far better.

    We really enjoyed the horse riding. The horses were very sweet. And especially our quide was very enthousiastic. The riding also involved galopping, so is also nice for the more experienced rider. We would recommend it.

    A nice one kilometer hiking trail. Be sure to wear hiking shoes and do take a camera as the forest is stunning and you might see a Knysna loerie.
    Be prepared to do a little bit of steep up-and down hill at the beginning and end of the trail.
