Trip Details

Keen to hike the most rugged and pristine section of Wild Coast, but don't feel like carrying your own overnight bags and preparing meals? Outside of the holidays, we can offer a fully supported and catered version of the 3 & 5 night Pondo-Explorer trail.

You will overnight at African style tented camps, and your main bag will be transferred from camp to camp, so you need only hike with a light daypack. Dinner, breakfast and a packed lunch for each trail day, will be provided, and your third night is spent at Mbotyi River Lodge.
