Wood Cutters Journey -Travel the indigenous forest on a journey down the old Storms River Pass.


Join Stormsriver Adventures on a journey down the old Storms River pass, and experience the indigenous forest from the comfort of a specially designed vehicle.

Guides will take you along elephant trail down to the water, passing tree ferns, stinkwoods, yellow woods and many other tree species, whilst hearing about the history of the area and the local flora and fauna. Watch out for a glimpse of the elusive Narina Trogan and the inquisitive Knysna Loerie who enjoys the tranquil shade of the leafy canopy. Stop and relax where wagons, since the last century, have and enjoy a light lunch or tea next to the Storms River.

This 3 hour excursion is a comfortable journey through a dense treed heaven with the sound of the rushing river and bird calls as a cappella accompaniment.

Departure times vary to meet your schedules, with a variety of food menus available on request.
