CONSTANTIA CORNER RIDGE

R450 per person

Starting from the parking lot at Constantia Nek, walk up the Bridle Path (dirt road), we follow so steps up  to Eagle’s Nest. From there up the ridge-line of Constantia Corner.

It’s a fairly steep climb, with a couple of short scrambles, but a talented dog can manage it. At the top, the path takes you through gently undulating fynbos and beautifully-sculpted sandstone boulders, one of which looks exactly like a camel. (Yes, it’s called Camel Rock. And yes, it’s #instaworthy.)

The path pops out rather suddenly beside the De Villiers reservoir and back onto the Bridle Path. From here, you can either carry on exploring the mountaintop or stroll straight back down the road for some refreshment options at La Parada.
