More about this tour

Take a meandering path through an ancient Milkwood forest, where thousand year old trees send exploratory branches in search of sunlight, or visit one of the remnant Afro-montane forests on the reserve.

Young and old can walk, explore in a four wheel drive or take a horse ride and enjoy the views from the elevation of a comfortable saddle on a well schooled horse or pony.
