Silent Steps

Kom stap saam met Silent Steps in die voetspore van die San, die jagter versamelaars en eerste inwoners van Afrika. Hierdie baie gewilde 50km slenterstap strek vanaf Elandsbaai tot die klein kusdorpie Strandfontein, en is toeganklik en veral bekostigbaar vir alle stappers en alle ouderdomsgroepe! Die afstande bedags wissel van 8 na 17 km wat beteken dat daar sommige dae genoeg tyd is om ander besienswaardighede te besoek en selfs n middagslapie te neem vir die wat wil! Bedags stap ons met n klein dra-rugsakkie oor ongerepte strande, klowe en kranse terwyl ons ook besoek aflê aan argeologiese opgrawings, sankuns en skulpmiedens, alles n duidelike bewys van die San se sowat 30 000 jaar se afwisselende lewe aan hierdie ongerepte kuslyn. Hierdie stap is vanwee sy bekostigbaarheid baie gewild en stappers word versoek om vroegtydig te bespreek op op webtuiste of by anette@silentsteps.co.za
