Kogelberg Hike

Reviewed October 2, 2016

We started off the hike on a chilly morning, and I thought it was going to be too cold.  But as the hike progressed I realised it is actually ideal weather to do a hike in.  The trail was neat and properly marked.  There were so many different plants that it was difficult to focus just on one.  Gill took us through the tiniest flowers' properties and history and without that, I might not have even noticed the tiniest beauties.  Ralph explained the Proteas in the most amazing way and highlighted details like sustainability and environmental impact on the life span of Proteas.  The hike took us through the fynbos and we went through a spot close to the waterfall.  This was absolutely breathtaking.  The most beautiful old trees with the stream running through it.  Gill and Ralph's knowledge of the plants and birds were much appreciated, and they explained with much detail on any of the questions we had.  Gill also elaborated on the vast amount of frogs we came across.  Gill and Ralph are amazing guides and I would return for another hike any day.  The hike was about 8km and still it was paced so well that by the end of the hike you do not feel exhausted.  Thank you for this amazing experience!

Gill and Ralph were very knowledgeable about the abundant flora that abounds in the Feenkloof reserve. They provided us with a tasty lunch and a tea stop for our all day excursion. They were akways ready to provide us with information about what we were seeing, and answer our many questions. Thanks to Gill and Ralph, we had an excellent day and I would recommend them for your nature tour.
