Activities:
The Lakes District is an adventure playground. There is bird watching,
hiking, paragliding, diving, riding, mountain biking, canoeing, abseiling,
surfing and more.
The Wilderness also has many reputable and accredited adventure companies,
run by by professional people who are committed to giving you the experience
of a lifetime.
The activities in this area are designed for everyone no matter what
your fitness level. You can take a gentle stroll along a forest path or
sit quietly in a wooden bird hide and discover our wealth of bird life
with a experienced birding guide. However, you can go without a guide
and see if you can catch the otters playing or the beautiful Malachite
Kingfisher diving for fish.
Keen birders will spot forest species as well as grassland, wetland,
shore and marine birds. Bird hides have been carefully situated at Rondevlei
and Langvlei.
The walks and hikes through Wilderness National Park (2500ha) and the
adjoining reserves are ideal for discovering the many birds, plants and
animals of this unique area.
The Lakes District offers some of the best land-based whale and dolphin
watching along a coast, particularly from June to November during mating
and calving season.
You can explore many rivers (which have their source in the Outeniqua
Mountains) on foot, along an extensive network of hikes and trails. Some
of which are easy, others more challenging. The trails range from one
hour to seven days to complete.

Paraglide in heaven - soar above the coast and have a birds-eye view of
this beautiful environment.
