{"product_id":"south-africa-western-cape-kogelberg-nature-reserve","title":"Kogelberg Nature Reserve","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou hike through mountain fynbos at Kogelberg Nature Reserve, a protected area near Betty's Bay with trails that wind through the Cape Floral Kingdom. The reserve limits visitor numbers to keep the impact low, so you walk with few others on the paths. Trails range from the easy Palmiet River Walk, which follows the river for ten kilometers, to the two-day Highlands Trail that crosses private land and requires overnight arrangements in Kleinmond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrepare for rough terrain and changing weather — closed shoes are essential, and in winter you will need a raincoat. The reserve is home to a baboon troop; if you meet them, keep your distance. Trail maps are available for download, and permits can be bought at the reserve office or through CapeNature. Parking at trailheads is limited and works on a first-come basis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Highlands Trail takes six to seven hours on the first day and eight on the second, with a maximum group size of twelve. Other routes include the Kogelberg Trail, a twenty-four-kilometer walk through forest patches, and the Three Sisters Trail starting at Kleinmond Golf Course. The reserve is part of the Cape Floral Region, a World Heritage Site, and its trails are marked to guide hikers through the landscape. Cell phone reception ends at the turnoff from the tar road.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"South Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51932467003612,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/8256\/8156\/files\/kogelberg-nature-reserve-nature-preserve-off-r44-between-kleinmond-and-bettys-bay-south-africa-01.webp?v=1783202953","url":"https:\/\/murmurgo.com\/products\/south-africa-western-cape-kogelberg-nature-reserve","provider":"Murmurgo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
