Description

There is also a good chance of spotting nyala, bushbuck, duiker, rooibok and birds, such as the Knysna loerie, hawks and eagles. The route climbs to 570m at its highest point and there is a view site that offers a sweeping vista of the valley.  

At the other end of the trail visitors get a view of the Cockscomb mountain.

"In 1988 we went on holiday as a family for the first time; my youngest child was two months old.  We saw how good it was for the family, and decided that it would make it an annual event.  So every June we packed the bakkie with everything we needed, and the four children sat behind in the ‘canopy’.  We travelled Africa before many people even thought of doing it.  We know the Moremi Reserve in Botswana so well, we’ve driven Namibia in its entirety and visited places that don’t have any toilet or bathroom facilities.  During our travels we have gained an understanding of what traveller’s needs are". "We started building a house for a farm worker on our farm, and when he left suddenly before the house was complete, we decided to change the house into a chalet for tourists.  We also developed a campsite, and still dream of opening a lodge on the property".
