Two River Hiking Trails
This is a two day hike with a total of 20km.
On day 1 you park your car at the ccottage and start your journey through the veld.
The forest is filled with butterflies, it feels like you're in a Disney movie. There are plenty of spiders with intricate web designs, do your best to not walk through the webs - some spiders are poisonous. There are wild horses and buck.
Your hike on day 1 ends at the Medbury cottage where you can shower and make a fire.
Day two is a little more challenging with a steeper walk and puff adders a long the way. Definitely wear long pants and closed shoes.
You eventually make your way back to the cottage where you parked.

Traveling to South Africa, experience the luxury hotels in the wildlife reserves
What is the meaning of travel? It's actually quite simple. It's about seeing different natural landscapes and cultural customs in the limited time of life, enriching one's life. Every encounter during the trip is unforgettable and precious to me. Recalling my last trip to South Africa, the wonderful journey is still vivid in my mind.
The first night of the trip, we stayed at the Pumba Private Game Reserve Hotel located in Highlands, Grahamstown. For travelers who want to capture the charm of Grahamstown, Pumba Private Game Reserve Hotel is an ideal choice. It is about 48 kilometers from Port Alfred Airport.
The hotel, full of wild charm, is located within the 600-hectare Pumba Private Game Reserve. Although there are only a little over ten rooms, each is uniquely designed. Through the 180-degree glass doors and windows, the landscape of the camp is maximized into the room. The outdoor terrace also has an open-air small swimming pool and an outdoor shower. If you're lucky, you can interact with the animals while soaking in the pool, enjoying the wonderful experience of harmonious coexistence with animals.
Staying here, you can not only enjoy various wines and delicacies but also sign up for the 'wildlife safari' program to have a close encounter with the 'African Big Five'. The room rates are around 4000 RMB in the off-season and double during the peak season. Due to the limited number of rooms, advance reservation is required.
