Storms River & Tsitsikamma National Park Trips & Tours

Drive east from Plettenberg Bay, past pretty-as-a-picture Keurboomstrand and the heart-stopping Bloukrans Bridge and bungee, and you’ll soon stumble across Tsitsikamma and the village of Storms River. Tsitsikamma is the name given to this section of the Garden Route National Park and encompassing deep ravines and dense forests, roiling rivers and a host of flora that looks as if it belongs on a movie set - think giant Outeniqua trees and orchids and lilies the size of small children - it’s nothing short of spectacular. The 80km coastline is just as remarkable and it’s not unusual to spot dolphins and whales from the shoreline whilst baboons and dassies run amok nearby. Storms River is a few minutes from the entrance to the park and although small, has made its name as a something of an activity hub. It’s here that you can book the zip-lining tree canopy activity, guided hikes, and kayaking tours. If you’d rather tackle Tsitsikamma alone, simply head through the gate and follow one of the well-marked hiking or walking trails; the viewpoint just over the 77-metre suspension bridge at the Storms River mouth is a favourite.
