The Oystercatcher and the Cape Nature Tierkloof Trail in Western Cape two of the best hikes in the world
Mossel Bay’s Oystercatcher Trail and the Cape Nature Tierkloof Trail in the Gamkaberg Reserve are among the thirty spectacular walks included in “Unforgettable Walks to Take Before You Die.”
The 256 page book is authored by photographers and writers Steve Watkins and Clare Jones and draws on their collective years of international travel experience.
The authors have selected thirty of the world’s most inspiring, spectacular and beautiful walks, each of which can be done within the space of a two-week break.
The Oystercatcher Trail is a three or five day walk along the largely undisturbed coastline west of Mossel Bay. The trail leads southwards towards the Gouritz River mouth.
Now a major tourist attraction in Mossel Bay, this popular trail has earned itself a series of local and international accolades.
Among these is a place in Getaway’s Top 10 South African hikes as well as a spot in National Geographic Traveler’s Top 50 Tours of a Lifetime.
The Gamkaberg Rerserve is situated within the Gamka Mountain in the Little Karoo. The mountain boasts a rugged terrain with deep ravines. The trail starts in the succulent Karoo with a moderately strenuous trail.
The route then takes hikers through a deep, forested ravine to a fynbos-rich mountain plateau where hikers can rest on the Oukraal camp and look out on to the Swartberg and Outeniqua mountain ranges.
Other walks included in Unforgettable Walks to Take Before You Die include walking tours along Boston’s Freedom Trail, the Peru Inca’s Trail and the picturesque canals of Amsterdam and Kilimanjaro Nature Reserve.
