Check out the Baviaans Canyon Trail website.
The Baviaans Canyon Trail is a 5-day slackpacking hike through the Baviaanskloof world heritage site. An untouched piece of South African wilderness made accessible through a partnership with Eastern Cape Parks and Tourism.
As a slackpacking route, we will only need to carry a daypack and our supplies will be shuttled for us between the glamping pods we will be staying in each night.
There are exactly 12 slots available, so if you are interested in joining this part of the trip please let me know ASAP!
