KNYSNA FOREST WALKS / FOREST TRAILS - VIRTUAL PHOTO TOUR

Knysna Forest - walks and trails for every fitness level and appetite. Walk through old forest with giant old yellow woods older than most countries; delight at tree ferns and moist little forest nooks where frogs and fairies dwell... Whether you want to just stroll in for a few minutes on a forest trail easy to traverse, take an hour-long circular Knysna Forest Trail route through different biomes, explore the Knysna forest trees, or get more serious on a 9km plus trail with some up-hills, there is a range of trails near Forest Edge to choose from. Visit the Big Tree - a 900 year-old Yellowwood Giant where Dalene Matthee's memorial has been erected, and also the starting point of the Circles in the Forest Trails and the Homtini Cycling Trail. Some trails lead to or past rock pools for cooling off, or lingering with a picnic, others even lead to a waterfall. There is always the chance of coming across Knysna forest wildlife, or spotting the magnificent Knysna Loerie (Knysna Touraco) or other Knysna forest birds. It is good for the body, and even better for the soul. If you feel stuck, try a walk in the Knysna Forest - nothing beats walking in the forest!

The Drupkelders Walk at Forest Edge Knysna Forest requires a permit, other Knysna walking trails may require a nominal entry fee at the Sanparks entry boom. For more information on Sanparks trails, contact Sanparks on 044-3025606.
