Holiday Accommodation Garden Route
The Garden Route spans approximately 350 km from Heidelberg within the Western Cape to Storms River Mouth in the Eastern Cape, and is renowned for its lush, green, and contrasting foliage. It is a magical place.
This famous route passes through various lagoons, river mouths, streams, and beachside towns – Groot and Klein Brak River, Nature’s Valley, Sedgefield, Plettenberg Bay, Wilderness, George and Knysna – with scenery that so many have felt compelled to catch in photos, drawings, and verse in an effort to capture its majesty. Although there are few planted gardens in the district, it is a spectacularly lush, narrow coastal strip with year-round rain and home to more than 6500 varieties of plant species.

About The Garden Route
The biggest montane woodland complex in the world can be located on the Garden Route. In addition, the amazing mountain tops, wetlands, rugged sandy beaches and cliff faces, and you’ve got nature’s garden. Apart from Cape Town and the Kruger National Park, the Garden Route is the most popular tourist destination in South Africa. The variety of vegetation, climate, animals, and outdoor activities are indeed challenging to match.
Blacksmiths, painters, alternative healers, authors and potters, have all settled down in villages and towns along the N2, so it’s no wonder that the region is fully recognized as an artists’ refuge. Because of its success, there is a broad variety of lodging choices for all budgets, spanning from backpacker hostels to nature parks, guest houses, guest rooms, and self-catering establishments, as well as condos, beachside residences, and retreats.
The demand has helped to bring small towns on the map that few citizens have heard about before. Towns like Eersterivier, Vleesbaai, Riversdale, Keurboomstrand, Dana Bay, Still Bay, and much further afield like Joubertina, Kareedouw, and Witsand have now entered the Garden Route (albeit informally) and deliver accommodation that varies from tidy and convenient to lavish and palatial.

More Info On the Garden Route
The Garden Route starts about four hours outside of Cape Town and encompasses the gorgeous lengths of coastline worldwide. The starting point is perpetually disputed as towns like Stilbaai, Witsand, and Albertinia unite the route, which weaves its way for 200 kilometers through Wilderness, Sedgefield, George, and Knysna to Plettenberg Bay, ultimately resulting in the Tsitsikamma Forest – a haven of ferns, birdlife, and trees.
Among Mossel Bay and Plettenberg Bay, the Garden Route stretches for 300 kilometers and is one of South Africa’s most popular vacation destinations. Mountains cling to a coastline studded with bays and beaches, while vibrantly colored wildflowers dazzle the senses. The Garden Route goes along to a coastline with lakes, mountains, towering indigenous woods, amber-colored rivers, and golden beaches between Heidelberg and Storms River.
Hikers enjoy meandering paths; the woods encourage long, unhurried drives, and the rivers and lakes ideal for swimming, canoeing, and fishing. When exploring the Garden Route in South Africa, a wide variety of recreational activities, beautiful landscape, and a warm temperature provide a memorable vacation experience.
The area is a fascinating contrast study. The charming town of George, often renowned as “The Gateway to the Garden Route” is on a coastal plateau at the base of the Outeniqua Mountains ranges in a rich region of lush vegetation. Oudtshoorn, dubbed the “Capital of the Klein Karoo,” is located in a semi-arid valley suitable for ostrich farming on a large scale.
The Garden Route runs from Heidelberg to the Tsitsikamma Forest and Storms River on South Africa’s southern coast. It’s a part of the nation that inspires authors and artists, and their presence lends the Garden Route a hip vibe. Many international visitors make it a high priority as well. The seaside road connects a collection of beautiful villages surrounded by natural beauty.
Swimming, abseiling, angling, and other adventure activities are available along the route. The Tsitsikamma National Park, situated on a rocky outcropping of the Indian Ocean, is one of South Africa’s most spectacular protected places, combining marine and terrestrial features. Its native woods are a refuge for avifauna. The Klein Karoo, with its mountain peaks and steep gorges, is one of South Africa’s most geologically fascinating regions.
The Cango Caves, a network of caves and tunnels gradually chiseled out of limestone located outside Oudtshoorn, are a significant geological feature. The Cango Caves are one of the 10 leading most visited destinations in South Africa.
Oudtshoorn, formerly the epicenter of the ostrich feather business in the 1890s, is definitely worth a visit. Old feather palaces may still be seen, and ostrich farms, which are now engaged in the economic meat industry, hides, eggs, and feathers, can be visited, with the option of riding an ostrich.
