Garden Route Tours – Best Time of Travel
Garden Route Tours are one of the most popular tours in South Africa. The Garden Route is tantamount to indented coastlines, beautiful bays and lagoons, lakes and meandering rivers, relict forests, beaches, cliffs, spectacular mountain ranges and lush vegetation characterize the Garden Route area. The section between Mossel Bay and the mouth of the Storms River in Tsitsikamma National Park is considered by many as the most beautiful natural paradise along the Indian Ocean.
The most famous locations in the wider area along the route are Cape Agulhas, the most Southern tip of Africa – where the Atlantic and Indian oceans meet – the Cango Caves in Oudtshoorn, the biggest cave in the world, Knysna with its beautiful lagoon, Bloukraans Bridge, the highest bungee jump in the world and the Tsitsikamma Nature Reserve.
Knysna
A trip along the Garden Route inevitably leads through the beautiful city of Knysna. The city is famous for its huge lagoon, where salt and fresh water merge and for the largest remaining indigenous forest of South Africa. This forest was of great importance to the city, after all, especially the timber industry contributed to the cities economic development. Today, the Knysna Forest is part of the Garden Route National Park and protected.
Knysna is also unmistakable through the most spectacular lagoon entrance in the world. The impressive Knysna Heads cliffs narrow the lake access to less than 200 meters. The lagoon is also home to some oyster farms. Fans of this delicacy will get the best value for money here.
The best time to travel is from October to May.
