With Southern Africa’s abundant natural magnificence, hikers will be in their element. Trails range from short to long, easy to almost impossible, and beautiful to breath-takingly-mind-boggling. This icon points to great hiking areas.
- Culture
Culture vultures can get their fill of museums, art galleries, Anglo/Boer/Zulu/bullet slinging/spear throwing battle sites. Southern Africa’s history is flavoured by a variety of exotic influences and there’ll be something to suit everyone’s taste. Just don’t expect 1 000 year old cathedrals. This icons covers all cultural interests.
- Nature in South Africa
There is lots of it. And most of it is protected so there are huge tracts of unspoilt loveliness that will have any nature lover coming back for more. This icon indicates naturally beautiful areas away from any major civilisation.
- Horseriding
A lot of cowboy-type mentalities live in this country – so there is no shortage of ponies to ride. Trails vary in length from an hour to seven days. The choice is yours. This icon lets you know that horseriding is available nearby.
Amadiba Adventures
|
|
This is an amazing trip into the heart of the Wild Coast. Their office open daily from 7am to 10pm.
Tune in and turn on.
Amadiba was one of South Africa’s first tourism initiatives to be entirely owned, and run by an indigenous community. Their outstanding guided horse and hiking trails (suitable for beginners or advanced riders) meander along South Africa’s most scenic and remote coastline. En route you encounter the warm Pondo people, cleanse your soul beneath crystal waterfalls, canoe untouched rivers and hike among wild animals in a nature reserve in the trip of a lifetime. At night you sleep in delicious eco-friendly tented camps with hot showers. Affordable day trails and 4 - 6 day trails depart from Port Edward. They also offer a drive-in and sleep option.

Day 4
…As we weave our way along the coastline, thousands of dolphins chase through a sea of sardines. My mind can’t keep up with their antics, let alone their numbers. It’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen…

Day 6
…Streams of people cross the hills on their way to church. Old people, their faces etched with wisdom, carry bundles of freshly picked herbs while kids chomp on sticks of sweet sugarcane... I don’t want to leave…
