Our guides will lead you on foot in the forest walking along giant indigenous trees including the Outeniqua Yellowwood. A favorite stop along the route is the “Human Face Tree” which is not manmade or has been struck by lightning. A unique artwork of nature!
The Tsitsikamma (previously known as Zitzikama) was first surveyed by the famous pass builder Thomas Bain in 1879. Bain found impenetrable forests east of Plettenberg Bay with access made even tougher by deep gorges. During the planning process of building a pass through the Storms River gorge, Bain followed the ancient elephant migratory routes down to the river and as elephants find the easiest way down, decided to build the pass along those routes. Labour for this difficult task was provided by convicts and some of their graves can still be seen on the outskirts of the Village. The pass itself was completed in 1884 and until the N2 and Storms River Bridge was built in 1955 was the only way to get through the gorge.
