Weekend Trail Runner Experience

Combo of Heuningbos Hut (2Day 1Night), Bloukrans Hut (2Day 1Night), and Trail Runner Support Package

Garden Route

Accommodation & Adventure - tailored packages for every adventure.

Activity Description

The Tsitsikamma Trail is a southern Cape hiking paradise, journeying through extensive indigenous afromontane forest and mountain fynbos. This slightly shorter variation of the full 6 Day hike lets us enjoy just enough of the enchanted mountain landscape.

Translate as ‘Honey bush’, the cabin is perfectly situated on the mountain side. A very pleasant swimming pool lies within rolling distance away from the hut. There are two choices available to this hiking trails entrance, one on the east and the other on the west of the Boskor Sawmill. The former is a direct route only 5 km away through the plantation road and Kleinbosrivier road. The latter, starting ±400m west form Boskor, heads around the Heuningkop peak and joins the hiking trail from Keurbos hut in the Heuning kloof for a 9 km route. The Heuningbos indigenous forest has many hidden secrets awaiting hikers further ahead. After the final descent towards the hut, you will cross the Kleinbos River twice before reaching the Heuningbos Hut. A very pleasant swimming pool lies within rolling distance away. The following day is exited on either route.

Activity Description

The Tsitsikamma Trail is a southern Cape hiking paradise, journeying through extensive indigenous afromontane forest and mountain fynbos. This slightly shorter variation of the full 6 Day hike lets us enjoy just enough of the enchanted mountain landscape.

The Bloukrans hut is situated on the verge of a cliff and offers incredible views of the river gorges below and Peak Formosa and the Tsitsikamma Mountains to the north. A couple of hundred metres beneath the balcony a coca-cola coloured waterfall tumbles away. The hut can be reached via the access route from the old Blaaukranz forest station or, for a long hike option, can be reached from the Natures valley camp 17.7 Km away through various sections of Natural forest and Fynbos.
