About the trail
The trail is the inland counterpart of the Otter Trail: it climbs from the coast at Nature's Valley into the Tsitsikamma Mountains and follows their slopes east to Storms River village. It passes river gorges, huge yellowwood trees and open fynbos with views down to the sea, and can also be walked in shorter versions.
Optional porterage is available, so hikers can walk with only a day pack.
