QUEENS RIVER ADVENTURE CAMP & QUEENS ROSE HIKING TRAIL, LOCATED WITHIN THE BARBERTON MAKHONJWA MOUNTAINS
Whilst the Makhonjwa Mountains’ Geotrail can be a self drive route stopping at the spectacular view sites along the way, the BEST way to explore this area is on foot and to spend time staying deep within the mountains, forests and valleys of this spectacular wilderness.  Set in the breath-taking Makhonjwa Mountains the Queen Rose hiking trail is most certainly one of South Africa’s most spectacular. It winds 26km through mountain passes, indigenous forests and over the Queen River and Montrose Plantation. Along the route you will be treated to a wide variety of indigenous plants and animal species, including 350 types of birds. Anyone can do this hike as long as you have a reasonable level of fitness and a good pair of hiking boots. You will be blown away by the spectacular views, incredible wildlife, entertaining river crossings and perfectly placed natural splash pools.
For those seeking an authentic hiker’s experience, the 2 huts provide the perfect basic accommodation, whilst those looking for something special, the Delfonté Chalets nestled in the picturesque grassy mountains, is the place to stay (these units can also be booked for non hikers).
