Situated in the heart of the Eastern Cape Garden Route, and lying between the Tsitsikamma Mountains and the Indian Ocean, the Eastern Cape, Storms River / Tsitsikamma area is often described as a wonderland because of its beauty, where visitors are spellbound by the dramatic Eastern Cape coastal scenery - rolling seas with massive, wild breakers pounding the shore; magnificent rivers winding their way from the Eastern Cape plateau down to the Indian Ocean; lofty mountains, sheer cliffs, and lush forests covered with a carpet of delicate fynbos.

The ancient, indigenous Eastern Cape, Storms River / Tsitsikamma forests are home to the giant Outeniqua Yellowwood trees - some over a 1,000 years old, as well as Stinkwood trees and many more that tower above one another to create a paradise of greenery, with the underlying fynbos bringing gorgeous colour to the Storms River / Tsitsikamma Forest, making for a spectacular sight.

The Eastern Cape, Tsitsikamma Forest is a protected conservation area with gorges, icy pools and beautiful waterfalls, with most of this rich utopia part of two Eastern Cape National Parks - the Tsitsikamma Coastal National Park, and the Tsitsikamma Forest National Park. The Tsitsikamma Coastal National Park stretches across some 75km of Eastern Cape coastline, and with its mild climate all year round, the Storms River / Tsitsikamma region is the ideal destination for adventurers who come to hike the rugged coastline.
Renowned as one of the best hiking trails in the world, the rigorous Tsitsikamma Dolphin Trail is not for the faint hearted. Those with the stamina and courage will be rewarded with breathtaking views of the rugged Eastern Cape, Storms River / Tsitsikamma coastline, which is often the playground for whales, dolphins and otters, and there is the chance of seeing the rare Oyster Catcher, and the Cape Clawless Otter. On the Tsitsikamma / Storms River Aasvoelkrans Trail, you will see ancient stone fish traps which date back over 5000 years. By using rocks, the Khoisan people created artificial tidal pools which catch fish stranded by the ebbing tide.

En-route through the Eastern Cape, Tsitsikamma National Park, many species of birds can be seen and heard - watch for the Amethyst Sunbird along the Tsitsikamma Forest edges, and the Rednecked Spurfowl in the thickets.
