While we were in Plettenberg Bay our lovely
host decided it would be a great idea to take us on a day-trip to Knysna’s Garden of Eden Forest for a relaxed walk. I love forests and often visit Cape Town’s leafy haunts so was enthusiastic. I had no idea how beautiful this forest was going to be.
You have to know where the entrance is not to miss it as you drive along the N2 road and when we arrived I immediately held my breath. The treetop canopy overhead dappled in the sun, and the air was peaceful and quiet.
We paid our entry (I think it was only R10), which goes towards the preservation of the forest. It felt like we were walking into another world; the colours were vibrant and natural, the lush vegetation covered every surface and the serene ambience made us instantly relax.
