Drupkelders - losely translated into Dripping Cellars, are rock pools in the Knysna forest. Combine a 3.5km indigenous forest walk with a visit to magnificent rock pools in the Homtini River
in the Knysna Forest. These massive rock pools offer deep, cola-coloured waters
to cool off in and even a waterfall to clamber up next to (to another series of pools). Take a rucksack with picnic and swimming things and wear good walking shoes as there is a
steep section near the river. Due to the exclusivity of this gem, only 12 persons a day are allowed in and a Sanparks permit is required (not expensive and necessary to keep on you).
This trail starts at Forest Edge Nature-lovers Retreat. To book a permit, contact
Sanparks on 044-3025606.
