Graaff-Reinet
is worth at least two days’ stopover. There is an excellent choice of trails through the surrounding
countryside and mountains, which may be undertaken independently or in
organized parties with a guide.
More than 22 species of birds have been recorded in the region.
Expeditions and walks with local experts can be arranged.
Riding is a great way to explore the countryside, especially the
higher ground and more inaccessible regions. There's no better place to see the drama of the landscape, to learn
about its geological evolution or to view the amazing setting of the
town, or to watch the sun rise or set over the Plains of Camdeboo than
from these extraordinary cliffs and crags. You may also be lucky
enough to see the resident pair of black eagles circling at sunset.
