Traverse the scenic hiking trails of Wilderness National Park, a scenic landscape that surrounds the eponymous town and forms part of the famed Garden Route. Established in 2009, the park boasts a series of lakes, rivers, and picturesque forest scenery. Pitch a tent at one of the campsites, enjoy a lakeside picnic, or explore the area on a bike. If you're short on time, you can go canoeing on the rushing river, and take the leafy woodland path to the waterfall.

Love the quietness of the area. However can be very busy in season. Staff very helpful

Not our best Sanparks experience, ablutions weren’t cleaned up to standards, pay for hiking, pay for riversite, pay for electricity, pay per canoe, wow, they are milking it. Wind were horrendous with several tents blown to pieces. Beautiful beautiful area, but the costs are too high.
