The Whale Trail is a beautiful trail in de Hoop Nature Reserve. Arguably one of the most popular trails in South Africa.
The trail is suitable for medium-fitness hikers. It is a five day, 56-kilometre slack-packing trail through the De Hoop Nature Reserve that introduces you to some of the most beautiful scenes along the Western Cape coastline. The reserve is part of the Cape floral region and is a World Heritage Site that hosts one of the largest marine protected areas in Africa. Famous for the large pods of whales that congregate during breeding season annually. The dolphins are all year round. We often see large schools of resident dolphins & also seals playing in the water. An absolute feast.
Expanses of fynbos, grasses and proteas lie before you every step of the way. The landscape is constantly changing as is the vegetation. The first two days are mountainous and as you move along the coast on the third, fourth and fifth day, the coastal scenery is breathtaking. De Hoop is part of the Cape floral region, which is one of the planet’s smallest, and most threatened floral kingdoms.
The reserve is essential in conserving rare lowland fynbos. De Hoop has an estimated 1,500 plant species of which 108 are threatened.
