Travel to Knysna Heads for an easy hike to a lookout point for views of two massive sandstone cliffs that flank the mouth of the Knysna lagoon.

Day 3: Tsitsikamma - Wilderness - Sedgefield
Awaken to the adrenalin packed day of ziplining and free falling. After breakfast, you’ll have the option to do a waterfall zipline (own expense) across the nearby Kruis River. The eight ziplines-the longest being 692 feet (211 meters) zigzag across the river gorge, in some places as high as 164 feet (50 meters) above the water! If that is not enough for you, drive 45mins in the minicoach to the world’s highest bungee jump at Bloukrans Bridge. Standing 709 feet (216 meters) above the Bloukrans River, the arch bridge is the ideal place to bungee jump! If you don’t want to participate in this optional activity (own expense); submerge yourself in the magical Tsitsikamma forest with a short walk through indigenous trees to the Yellow Wood giant, estimated to be over 1000 years old. After lunch, continue the scenic drive to Wilderness. Jump into a two-man canoe and glide along calm waters of the Touw River.
