Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour

Adventure Activity in the Tsitsikamma Rainforest

The Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour© is a unique Eco-wilderness adventure activity that takes place in the magnificent Tsitsikamma indigenous rainforest. The first of its kind in Africa, the canopy tour involves traversing from one platform to another along a steel cable suspended up to 30 meters above the forest floor. Most platforms are located in giant Outeniqua Yellowwood trees. The scenery and bird life is spectacular and professional guides provide interesting facts about the forest ecology during the 2½ to 3 hours.

Things to Do in Stormsriver

Hold your breath as you slide from tree to tree through the Tsitsikamma Forest, stopping at each new platform while your guides tell you a little more about the surrounding ecology. If you are fortunate you will spot a pair of Knysna Loeries or the brilliant red plumage of the elusive Narina Trogon. Whatever happens, were quite sure you`ll want to do it all over again! Defiantly one of the things you have to do while in Stormsriver!

Fufi Slides in Tsitsikamma

The Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour consists of ten platforms and ten “fufi” slides with the longest slide of 100m! About 2 1/2 hours later you exit the forest, having undertaken the journey of a lifetime.
