Tsitsikamma Ziplining in The Treetops
The Tsitsikamma Forest is an ancient labyrinth with 116 types of trees, including the famous Big Tree. The towering Outeniqua yellowwood is estimated to be over 800 years old, and at 36.6m high, you can see where it got its name.
The entire Tsitsikamma area stretches across from Bloukrans River all the way to the Eerste Rivier.
The Tsitsikamma zipline takes you through the tree canopy 30m above ground, and into the stunning heart of the forest. On the tour, you will zip between 10 fully tree-based platforms, the only route of its kind in Africa.
Make your way through towering trees, covered in grandfather’s beard, and learn about the indigenous flora surrounding you. Tsitsikamma forest is the home of hard pear trees, hundred-year-old tree ferns, and Tsitsikamma’s pride – the Outeniqua yellowwood.
The stunning rainforest is also home to a number of indigenous southern African animals. Keep an eye out for:
- Blue duiker
- Knysna loerie
- Cape porcupine
- Small grey mongoose
A canopy tour offers a unique view of this stunning piece of the Garden Route. For the tree-climbing kid in you, take a trip round the leafy rooftop of Tsitsikamma’s stunning forest.

On the 5th October my family and I did the canopy tour and we didn't have a very good experience the guides tried there best to be as helpful as they could but we not trained well and couldn't answer any off our questions as my husband is a qualified rope access technician and wanted to know what safety measures were in place, my son felt sick and wanted to go back then they tried to convince him to go on and then didn't really have a plan to get him off then eventually agreed to let him go back they expected him to go alone and he's 8 years old, my husband went back with him and my son and I had to continue alone and after the tour I was having a hard time with the hike the supposed safety officer just walked right passed me an dwent to sit in the truck and the guide had to sit and wait for me till I was able to walk back to the transportation.

Impressive to see the forest from the canopy's perspective, coupled with the adrenaline rush of flying through them at exhilarating speeds. Support team are professional and entertaining and optional GoPro footage at the end leaves you with a worthwhile memory.
