About Salmonsdam Ravine Trail
Take a stroll through the Salmonsdam Nature Reserve near Hermanus along the Salmonsdam Ravine Trail and take pleasure in a fantastic day out amongst nature.
This 3 kilometer trail is rather easy and should take around 1.5 hours to complete. You head out through the Keeronskloof to a point and then turn back on yourself and return to the start. Along the way you will discover some extravagant rock formations and intriguing caves to explore.
Meander through a forest area and keep an eye out for small animals and birds blending into their environment while trying to spot the Spoonwood and Cape Beech trees. Climb through heavy Fynbos and find yourself at a breathtaking waterfall. There are many great lookout points on route for those must have photos.
The Salmonsdam Ravine Trail is suitable for children under supervision.
