Robberg Nature Reserve in Plettenberg Bay is more than just a beautiful mountain closing off the bay and keeping Plett secluded from its neighbours.
It is also more than just a spot for enjoying sundowners while drinking in the magnificent view. The Robberg offers those active folk a chance to enjoy a challenging yet very doable hike around the mountain.There are three circular routes that you can choose from. The first walk will take you to The Gap which is about 2km. The second walk is to the Witsand sand dune and down onto The Island, this walk is about 4km.
Then the longest walk will take you to The Point which is 11km. If you are planning to do the walk to The Point you should probably set aside a full day to make sure that you have time to relax and enjoy the scenery. This walk is quite challenging in parts and is not recommended for children.No matter which route you decide to take you will experience the most spectacular views.
Remember to pack water and light snacks, suncream, comfortable shoes, a hat and definitely a camera. Make a day of it so that you can really enjoy the beauty of the mountain, take regular breaks to breath in the fresh air and appreciate your surroundings.
