Cecilia Forest

Vue d'ensemble

This is a leisurely walk that will take you through the forest, up and along towards Constantia Nek. This is a great walk if you want to avoid the direct heat on a sunny day. The actual walk is very easy going and takes you along gravel road and a few small paths. From the car park you will walk up a gradual incline, but nothing overly strenuous. There is a really interesting little section that that takes you off the road into a single track path. Some people even say that there are forest fairies that live in the trees here… The route turns back just before Constantia Nek and heads back to Cecilia Forest via a lower trail. There are a couple of streams along the way which allow you to take a welcoming sip of cool mountain water, but be sure to take some other refreshments along.
