INDECISIVE THE DIFFICULTY? CHECK OUT THE ELEPHANT TRAILS! The Diepwalle Forest offers you 3x ELEPHANT TRAILS of varying difficulty. * Black Route: 9km; circular (Easy: 3-4 hours) * White Route: 8km; circular (Moderate: 3-4 hours) * Red Route: 7km; circular (Moderate – Difficult: 3-4 hours) Extract from the Garden Route Adventure Guide When the bush beckons, it is a wonderful idea to hike one of the three Elephant Hiking Trails. All three routes are a scenic delight with clear streams enticing you to stop, rest and explore. It is so invigourating to just let the mysterious beauty of the forest seep into your soul. The White Elephant Trail has the most enticing rock pool where you can stop for a picnic and even have a dip in summer. The Black Elephant Trail pass through both the Ysterhoutrug and King Edward VII picnic sites. The Red Elephant Trail crosses a little stream exactly halfway ideal for a lunch stop. If you feel really energetic you can link the routes into one long route of 18.2km which takes approximately 6-7 hours to walk. This includes rests, a slow pace and lots of time to look around. Apart from just walking, give attention to the huge yellowwoods, the stinkwood trees that topple over and just keep on growing. There is a vast variety of fungi and fynbos and do look out for vervet monkeys and the elusive Knysna Loerie Note: With all picnic stops and dips in the rock pool please be respectful of the environment. To know: * The water in the streams is drinkable and the brown color is because of the tannins from the leaves on the forest floor * From The TerraVerde: 24km.
