Tsitsikamma Hike - 12 May 2027

About the event

Immerse yourself in the untamed beauty of Tsitsikamma's wilderness with our guided slack packing adventure, starting May 12, 2027. This five-day journey through South Africa’s breathtaking mountains and forests offers a unique blend of comfort and exploration. Each day, you'll hike with only essential gear while your luggage is transported ahead to your next overnight hut. Marvel at pristine coastal thicket, fynbos, ancient afro-montane forest, and pine plantations as you traverse spectacular mountain passes, hidden valleys, and dramatic coastlines.
The trail begins in Nature's Valley and concludes at the iconic Paul Sauer Bridge over Storms River, taking hikers through the heart of Tsitsikamma. With daily distances ranging from 10 to 15 kilometers, this moderate challenge requires a good base level of fitness but avoids scrambling terrain. Each overnight hut is strategically positioned for maximum enjoyment of its surroundings and features communal hot showers powered by an old-fashioned donkey boiler system.
Join us on the Tsitsikamma Hiking Trail Adventure for an unforgettable journey through one of South Africa's most scenic regions, where comfort meets adventure in a truly unique way.
