The Garden Route
Scattered along the Garden Route, fashionable seaside resorts abound, attracting jet-setters from around the globe. Tiny coastal villages appeal especially to outdoor people who enjoy an unstructured holiday agenda.
Mountains crowd close to a shoreline dotted with beaches and bays, and vividly coloured wild flowers delight the eye. Between Heidelberg and Storms River, the Garden Route runs parallel to a coastline featuring lakes, mountains, tall indigenous forests, rivers and golden beaches. Meandering trails are followed by hikers, the forests invite long, leisurely drives, and the lakes and rivers lend themselves to swimming, boating and fishing. A wide range of garden route hotels, leisure options, spectacular scenery, a mild climate and superb garden route accommodation guarantee an unforgettable holiday experience.
The region provides a stirring study in contrasts. The delightful town of George, known as "The Gateway to the Garden Route", graces a coastal plateau in a fertile area of lush greenery at the foot of the Outeniqua Mountains. Oudtshoorn, "Capital of the Klein Karoo", is set in a semi-arid valley, providing the ideal habitat for ostriches which are farmed here. The towns between hug the coast and are weekend-getaway-favourites, from the ever-popular town of Knysna with its gorgeous lagoon and famed "Heads" to the magical stretch of beach in Wilderness. It's a nook of the country that offers inspiration to writers and artists whose presence gives the Garden Route a trendy flavour.
