The Garden Route is world-famous for its beautiful views, magnificent beaches, and year-round mild climate. Summers (Oct-May) are balmy and temperatures can reach 30 degrees C. Winters are extremely mild with temperatures rarely dropping below 10-15 degrees C, making it a year-round destination.

The area has hiking in super-abundance, with innumerable treks and hikes of varying difficulty, all of which have stunning scenery. Choose from the coastal Otter Trail, the inland Tstsikamma Trail, or the many day-hikes along beaches and through cool Afro-Montane forests.

Further inland takes you to even more walking and 4x4 country, with the mountain passes leading you into the Langkloof and the enormous nature reserves of the area, which are often signposted for day and overnight hikes.
