Garden Route National Park
Garden Route National Park, Nature reserve along South Africa's southern coast
The Garden Route National Park extends across coastal regions, mountains, and forests, featuring diverse ecosystems from Wilderness to Tsitsikamma.
The establishment of this protected area in 2009 united several existing parks, including Wilderness, Knysna, and Tsitsikamma sections.
The national park serves as an educational center where visitors learn about South African conservation methods and environmental protection.
Visitors can access the park through airports in George or Port Elizabeth, with accommodations ranging from camping sites to forest lodges.
The park contains multiple interconnected lakes recognized as Ramsar wetlands, supporting five species of kingfishers and numerous water birds.
