Gansbaai Experience Gifts: With scenic countryside, indigenous fynbos and golden beaches, Walker Bay is one of the most idyllic regions of the Western Cape. Explore on horseback with a relaxing full day trek, taking you across the Grootbos Nature Reserve with a knowledgeable local guide leading the way. You'll witness native seabirds, rolling sand dunes, and if you're lucky - whales! Horse riding is by far the best way to enjoy the natural beauty of Gansbaai, and would make the perfect addition to your seaside vacation. Treat yourself or buy a gift certificate for an animal lover!
Check Availability & Book
Starting from the Grootbos Nature Reserve, which has an award-winning lodge and is famous as a botanical hot-spot, the trail runs west through the coastal shrubland and traverses the vast magical, almost surreal, sand drifts (Grys Dune) of die Plaat.
Ride along perfect white beaches of the Walker Bay Conservancy and whale sanctuary which is arguably the best land-based area in the world to watch whales (whale watching capital of the world from June to December – whales and their calves often come within meters of the coastline). Admire these magnificent creatures and their "aquabatic" displays, splashing, crashing and blowing, breaching, lobtailing, spy-hopping and sailing close to shore.
Enjoy the sandy beaches and experience the thrill of beach canters. Just before De Kelders the coastline gets rougher with rocky beaches and limestone cliffs which flatten out onto sandy stretches of die Plaat. The coastal landscape will give way to mountain fynbos when we hit the slopes of the coastal hills to return to Grootbos.
