Robinson Pass

Between Oudshoorn and Mosselbay lies the Robinson Pass.
The higher part of this pass is scenically very beatiful, offering
distant views of rolling mountains and the sea.
The surrounding mountains are covered with fynbos and large tracts
of pine plantations and forest patches.
A very attractive hike has been laid out, the Koumashoek Circuit,
and is well worth doing. It takes approximately 6 hours to complete,
a distance of 14,7 km.
However, before rushing off, check it out with Cape Nature
as special permission has to be granted.

My husband,a keen and experienced hiker commented that it
was one of the best that he had completed.
I waited at the end of the hike for him, soaking in the
peace and quiet that the soul craves.
