The Forest Trail at Belle Balance-
This is one of the newest and most exciting walks on the Garden Route and offers majestic views of the Keurbooms River, its tributary the Palmiet River and the Tsitsikamma mountains and has recently been completed. The Forest Trail starts at the watering hole at Belle Balance, which is located inside the Plett Nature Reserve and winds down the mountain into the valley. The bottom of the valley has rock pools that make for a beautiful, secluded and much-needed shady rest stop after the first descent. The walk then goes through the indigenous forest up the next hill. The top part of the walk winds around a hill in a loop where the cries of fish eagles can be heard in the distance. Walking decks have been put in place where the going gets tough to make the walk easier. This is a 6km intermediate guided walk, which takes about 2 hours to complete and costs R100 per person. The Boma at Belle Balance is the perfect spot to sit back and relax after completing the Forest Trail. Booking for the Forest Trail must be made in advance and is open to guests and visitors.
