Plett Puzzle Park

Plett Puzzle Park is a one-of-a-kind attraction that provides interactive amusement for people of all ages and is conveniently located in the middle of South Africa’s stunning Garden Route.

The first ever life-size 3D MAZE to be constructed in South Africa, as well as an exhilarating and one-of-a-kind FOREST PUZZLE WALK, are their two primary attractions. These activities are intended for guests of all ages to engage in, and provide them with an opportunity for, physical and mental stimulation while also being amusing, instructive, and reasonably priced. They also provide a fantastic variety of games and puzzles that are appropriate for people of all ages and are available for purchase. Our events are completely one of a kind and are designed to be enjoyable for both young children and their parents. “A maze, is a maze, is a maze?”. Be wary, since the unconventional layout of our labyrinth distinguishes it from other mazes of its kind and throws off the majority of people who embrace the challenge it presents.

Nature’s Way Farm Stall

The Nature’s Way Farm is located on the Garden Route, a scenic 21 minutes drive from Plettenberg Bay. The farm is surrounded by cows, gardens, and meadows, and it offers stunning scenery of the Tsitsikamma highlands.

On an operational dairy farm, which first opened its doors in 2001, you’ll find our time-honored, family-run farm stand known as Nature’s Way. Our forte is in the production of cheeses, both domestic and foreign. Come on over to their veranda for a snack or a light supper (Cheese Tapas are one of their house specialties)!

Wolf Sanctuary

The Tsitsikamma Wolf Sanctuary is a not-for-profit organization located in the Eastern Cape that serves as a refuge for wolves who have been neglected or abandoned. Through a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in which you will have the chance to meet and engage with our wolves, it is our mission to raise awareness, enlighten and educate tourists about the plight of wolves. When guests come to visit our sanctuary, they will have the opportunity to participate in educational guided tours, take in breathtaking vistas, and have fun as a family.

Birds of Eden

The one-of-a-kind dome at Birds of Eden is two hectares and is the biggest of its kind in the world. It is situated over an indigenous forest canyon. At the moment, it is home to more than 3,500 birds belonging to over 280 different species, with the primary emphasis being placed on African birds.
