Itinerary description

A very scenic hike through the Blyde Canyon. A surprising amount of variety starting with an amazing view of the Canyon and the Blyde River below (World's End). The leopard trail then takes you about half way down the Canyon embankment and winds back to a tributary (Kidisi River) and several more short trails. We combined several of these trails (guinea fowl, Lourie) and created a loop that took us back to the start point and our car.

Trails are in good shape with lots of signage/markings and river crossings were easily managed. There is a restaurant on route with food, refreshments, wifi and a nice view. We did stay at the resort (Forever) and they requested that hikers sign in before hiking.

Enjoy!
