The Western Cape region

This is a strip of land like no other in the world in terms of beauty, natural attractions and unique flora and fauna - hence its name. Three of South Africa’s top hikes take place here - the Otter Trail and the Tsitsikama and Dolphin trails and man’s footprint has made little impact on the rugged and sometimes inaccessible coastline. The Garden Route is a paradise for eco-lovers, bird watchers and solitude seekers and one of the most beautiful parts of the Western Cape.

There are numerous wonderful day tours and sightseeing trips to be done around the Garden Route and environs. Link from here to our detailed listing or select Transport, Tours and Travel from the menu above. This section includes car hire companies, airlines, charter flights, and various other exciting travel opportunities.

The Garden Route has a Mediterranean Maritime climate, with moderately hot summers, and mild to chilly winters. It is one of the richest rainfall areas, most of which occurs in the winter months, brought by the humid sea-winds from the Indian ocean. Any time of the year is good for visiting the Garden Route area, depending if you enjoy a peaceful retreat during the winter months, or a bustling holiday destination during the summer.

Knysna has been recognised as one of the top 100 destinations in the world with its beautiful scenery, beaches and lush forests. This are plenty of restaurants and bars where you can relax after exploring the countryside or wandering around the shops in town.


How to get there

Conditions

The precise origin of the word Knysna is uncertain, but the most popular meaning is “straight down” – referring to the Knysna Heads. The Heads are two great sandstone cliffs which guard the mouth of the lagoon connecting the river mouth to the sea, offering spectacular views and boat rides. For those who feel like something adventurous, Plettenburg Bay offers the world’s highest bungee jump. An oyster hatchery is housed in the Knysna lagoon reputedly producing some of the tastiest oysters in the world.

Knysna is surrounded by various forests and resorts which provide excellent opportunities for a variety of outdoor activities, such as hiking, beautiful picnic spots and bird watching. Nature's Valley, also know as the Garden of Eden, houses the famous Big Tree and a diverse variety of tree species, whilst the Knysna Forest is well known for historically being the roaming grounds of a vast number of elephants and wildlife.
