This journey invites you to step off the map and into one of South Africa’s most awe-inspiring regions: the Wild Coast. Stretching along the Eastern Cape’s untamed shoreline, this immersive hiking experience blends soft adventure, cultural richness, and soul-stirring scenery into one unforgettable trip.
From the historic town of Makhanda, you’ll begin your journey with a scenic transfer to the charming Trennerys Hotel—your gateway to the wild. From there, you’ll hike along a spectacular stretch of coast, passing from the windswept beauty of Seagulls to the golden beaches of Morgans Bay. The trail carries you through a landscape shaped by the elements—where cliffs plunge into turquoise surf, cattle paths wind through grassy headlands, and the horizon seems endless.
Each day brings a new destination and a fresh sense of wonder. You’ll venture onward to Haga Haga, a small seaside village where time moves slower, and finish your walk at the clifftop comforts of Crawfords, a boutique coastal retreat that invites you to exhale and simply be. Every night, you’ll rest in handpicked accommodations—each one a unique expression of local character and comfort, with ocean views and warm South African hospitality to welcome you.
What makes this journey so special is its thoughtful simplicity. Your luggage is transported for you. Your lunches are packed. All you need to carry is your curiosity and your sense of adventure. With an expert guide leading the way, you’ll learn about the land, its people, and the powerful stories that shape this coastline.
This is a journey for those who prefer the path less travelled. It’s active, yet unhurried. Wild, yet deeply grounding. And while the views will take your breath away, it’s the feeling of being completely present—with your feet on the trail, the salt air on your skin, and the wide open space around you—that will stay with you long after you leave.
If you’re seeking meaningful movement, hidden gems, and a deeper connection to nature and place—this is the Wild Coast, and it’s calling.
