THE AREA

The incredibly beautiful area of land that lies between the Tsitsikamma Mountains and the sea stretches west to the Bloukrans River and east to Eerste River and is named after the San word that means a place of abundant water.

The area is like a treasure trove; overflowing with protected indigenous forest that bears ancient trees like yellowwood, hard pear, stinkwood, and ironwood; fynbos covered landscape and the appearance of entrancing animals and birds, like the shy Knysna Loerie. Described as the garden of the garden route, the Tsitsikamma actually deserves a more vivid description to encapsulate the beauty of the place.
