Stretching from Cape Agulhas, the southernmost tip of the continent, to Walker Bay Reserve, De Kelders, just south of Hermanus.<\/p>\n<p>Explore this incredible coastline with a professional marine nature guide.<\/p>\n<p>This area of the Cape is a diverse mix of rugged rocky shores scattered with historical and interesting Stone-Age caves, long white sandy beaches and dunes, cosy coves for some chilled swimming, pristine coastal fynbos and the amazing wildlife that has adapted to this environment. Happily most of this coastline remains largely untouched by development.<\/p>\n<p>Each leg of the trail offers a unique view of this coastline and is professionally interpreted through its history of humankind and the many shipwrecks in its waters, culture, topography and the natural wildlife to be found here.<\/p>\n<p>The trail can be done as a 1, 2, 3, and\/ or 4 day slack-packing hike, which includes accommodation and meals (also a self catering option). You can choose from different packages depending on your preference and pocket.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"sow-features-feature sow-icon-container-position-top\"\n\t\t\t\tstyle=\"display: flex; flex-direction: column; width: calc(33.333% - 25px);\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"sow-icon-container sow-container-none\"\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle=\"color: #404040; \"\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"sow-icon-image\" style=\"background-image: url(https:\/\/sandyfeet.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Horse-Riding-Cape-Town-Activity-Product.png); font-size: 300px\"><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"textwidget\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h1>About Horse Riding<\/h1>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1d134ff elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"1d134ff\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Make your top bucket list dream come true&#8230;<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ee94c84 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ee94c84\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Horse back adventures on the Cape Whale Coast<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pearly Beach\u00a0is a village in\u00a0Overberg District Municipality\u00a0in the\u00a0Western Cape\u00a0Province of\u00a0South Africa.
