Tsitsikamma forest cascade
One of my favorite photos taken in the last little while combining a couple of my favorite things. Forest, stream, waterfall and the Tsitsikamma.

Paul Sauer Bridge
Most travellers on the N2 through the Tsitsikamma stop at the Petroport to fill up the one tank, empty the other or just grab a snack. A lot of those travellers, specially those from afar, either take a walk across the Storms River Bridge or to the viewing platform. The bridge spanning the Storms River is actually called the Paul Sauer Bridge. The bridge was designed by Riccardo Morandi, an Italian architect, and completed in 1958. At the time of its building it formed…

Stormsriviermond hangbrûe
Die Tsitsikamma Nasionalepark op die Tuinroete is een van die mooiste plekke in Suid-Afrika met sy inheemse woude, loodregte kranse en pragtige kuslyn. Die 1 km lange mondwandelpad van die ruskamp tot by Stormsriviermond is die gewildste staproete in die park en die hoogtepunt is die drie hangbrûe by die riviermond self. Die oudste een van die drie steek die rivier oor terwyl die twee mees onlangse toevoegings oorgesteek word soos mens die rivier met die paadjie langs nader. Die enigste waarskuwing wat ek het…

Marilyn’s Diner in Storms River
When one visits a small village or town you often expect some kind of quaint little restaurant or coffee shop and not necessarily a place filled with Cadillacs, 50's & 60's memorabilia, Elvis, Marilyn Monroe and painted pink for added impact. This is exactly what we encountered next to the Tsitsikamma Village Inn on our visit to Storms River Village. Walking into Marilyn's Diner is like being whizzed back in time to a period of rock and roll, bold colours, chrome, neon…

Brown bracket
Although orange bracket fungus are easily spotted in the indigenous forests of the Tsitsikamma there are a number of less brightly coloured bracket fungus that can be spotted growing on mostly dead trees as well. In this case I found this branch full of a light brown bracket. Its because of things like these that I should just be left to walk through the forest on my own to explore and take photos without being rushed by the rest of…

Village Inn day and night panoramas
While staying at Tsitsikamma Village Inn in Storms River I took two panoramic photos from the upstairs balcony of one of the cottages. One during the day and one in the evening.

Tsitsikamma Village Inn
If somebody had to ask me right now what my absolute favorite hotels are the first one on my list would be the three star Tsitsikamma Village Inn in Storms River Village. "Why?" I hear you ask. I absolutely love the hotel not just for one specific reason but because of the sum of a number of reasons. The hotel is situated in the heart of the beautiful Tsitsikamma, its a stone's throw from the indigenous Tsitsikamma forest with the stunning…

Slow shutter waterfall
I don't often play around with the settings on my camera, but I couldn't help slowing down the shutter speed just a little bit for this pic of one of the streams flowing through the Tsitsikamma forest.

Lilies and cottages
Lilies growing along Oak Lane in Storms River Village in the Tsitsikamma with some of the old forestry houses (now under the control of SA National Parks) in the background. Beyond the houses is the Tsitsikamma forest and in particular the Plaatbos section.
