Any of the accommodation in Tsitsikamma can put you in touch with the right people to arrange this hike.

For a scenic trail but with fewer struggles and more strolling, try the Dolphin Trail. The Dolphin Trail passes through similar terrains to the Otter and joins up with it in places. Instead of staying in huts, you will stay in fully catered guest houses in Tsitsikamma with awesome views and great food.
