About this activity
Spoil the senses to a remarkable fig forest walk as you explore the spellbinding beauty of natural Africa. Although the Fig Forest Walk is only about two hours long, the walk itself is situated deep in the uMkhuze Game Reserve so the activity includes a game drive to and from the walk.
This walk is not strenuous but does require traversing two short swing bridges over the beautiful Mkuze River. The walk meanders under the magnificent canopy of giant sycamore figs, the oldest of which is estimated at 450 years.
The silence of the forest is broken by a multitude of bird calls typified by the wail of trumpeter hornbills, while special sightings have included the Pels Fishing Owl, the African Broadbill and the Blue Mantled Flycatcher.
Minimum 2 persons and maximum 7 persons. Driver/Guide, Entrance fees & bottled water included in the activity. No children under 16 years.
Subject to the availability of a Parks Board Guide.
