Explore the Overberg landscapes along trails through the Cape fynbos and into dune moonscapes through to the pristine Walker Bay coastline.
This Fat bike adventure is a great experience, strap on your helmet and head out. The experience starts on guided trails through the fynbos. The landscape transitions into the dramatic dune landscapes and finally to the white sands of the Walker Bay coast.
Birds, seals, dolphins and whales (in season) are frequent sightings in this natural wonderland. The extra thick 4.7 inch tyres ensure that you won't get stuck and that the dunes are easily navigated.
Fat Biking is something for every level of proficiency or experience and is appropriate for all ages. It makes for a fun group activity, team building or family outing.
From mountain peaks to ocean depths, the Grootbos landscape and surroundings hold ancient secrets of humankind. This region, where Cape Floral Kingdom meets the wild Walker Bay coastline, has been home to humankind for millennia. Over the last decade, paleo-anthropological findings reveal how our earliest ancestors once thrived here, surrounded by the same rich biodiversity that continues to flourish today. Whether exploring on land, across the water, or from the sky, experience the significance of this unique area and the profound impact it has on all who experience it.
Grootbos is a world leader in sustainable tourism and has been awarded some of the highest international accolades possible, making us one of only a handful of lodges to achieve this.
The last year has been a busy one at Grootbos. We rebuilt our beloved Garden Lodge entirely and re-opened it in April 2022. We also officially launched the Grootbos Florilegium - Africa's first contemporary florilegium - which is a collection of botanical illustrations created by local and international artists, depicting the charismatic plants found on our reserve and the surrounding regions.
