The popular Garden Route is a trip that must be taken when in the Western Cape. You could cruise slowly through its timeless beauty or stay over and experience nature at its finest. Rich in history, plant-life, water and land. The peacefulness encourages you to #GetInAGoodSpace and unwind, while taking in all the beauty nature has to offer. Visitors can enjoy bits of kayaking and canoeing, abseiling, angling, bird watching, picnics, whale watching, horse riding, walking and hiking. With so much to see – we highly recommend a stay-over at CapeNature’s reserve accommodation.
An educational experience to say the least and memories to last a lifetime.
