An Unforgettable Experience: Walking in South Africa

Article by Tony Maniscalco

Sometimes in life there are things that just must be done, and experiencing a holiday walking
South Africa is one of them. For the adventurous that have assembled their very own bucket
list, a guided walk of South Africa simply must be part of it. From it, you will amass stories of
adventure, up close nature encounters, lifelong friends and photos worthy of envy.

Close your eyes and allow yourself to be immersed in the magic of Africa. Open them to see
safari animals silhouetted against a fiery red setting sun; lose yourself in the breathtaking sight
of waterfalls of such magnitude you never imagined could exist; and gaze into a limitless
landscape that goes beyond anything the naked eye can see.

This is only the beginning of what you can experience from a holiday walking South Africa.
Traditional tours are a great option for travellers who want to see a highlight and scurry back to
the safety of the city, however for the adventurous, the curious, for those who wish to explore
and experience first hand everything this part of Africa can offer, walking in South Africa is the
best way to do it.

Take a once-in-a-lifetime guided walk as you meander through some of the country’s most
spectacular scenery. Listen closely as your experienced tour leader describes the exotic wildlife,
stunning landscape, fascinating history and captivating culture that only exist in this part of
Africa. Enjoy visits to townships and villages along the way where you will see contemporary
culture and intriguing traditions that are still practised by the local people.

This part of Africa is considered to be the ‘real Africa’; where open woodland, broad-leaved
trees and interspersed grassland all coexist amongst an abundance of exotic wildlife. It is here,
in this part of Africa, where the long wide rivers are lazy and slow moving. It is here where
beautiful beaches, deep tangled forests and breathtaking river gorges can be found like none
other you’ve seen before.

Your great South African adventure can include sites such as the Maltese Cross, Wolfberg
Arch, hiking through Cape Peninsula National Park, or high tea from a safari tent in Kruger
National Park. Keep your camera handy as your guided walk just may include the Boulders
Beach African penguin colony or a visit to the village of Tulbagh, which dates back to the 18th
century. There is also the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens, Table Mountain, Cape Point Nature
Reserve and numerous vineyards in the wine country of South Africa’s western cape.

Be ready to experience the African flora and fauna that will not be found any place else on
Earth. Enjoy the up-close and personal side of the country that you will only get from walking

South Africa’s cultural wonderland. Taking an organized guided walk is the greatest way to be
completely drawn into the mysterious magic of the country. Trek along the vast plains or
meander high into the mountains as you learn about the different animal tracks and medicinal
qualities of the African plant life. Immerse yourself in the natural pools of the Stadsaal Caves or
sit back and relax with an afternoon of wine tasting at one of the many vineyards.
