THE OUTENIQUA HIKING TRAIL

I am here to help you have an amazing, hassle free hike.

I do this by running a shuttle transport service for all hikers to the start or from the finish. I have listed some of the great nuggets of info I have gained chatting to my passengers over the years. (but more of that later...)

So many of you have battled to find out this information before heading off on your hike resulting in the hassle of having a car at each end of the trail and someone having to head off to fetch a car, only to head all the way back again to fetch the rest of the hiking party. (This is no fun when you are sore and weary after hiking for 8 days, and you should be relaxing with your hiking buddies reflecting on the past 8 days’ experiences)

Here is some advice

In order to help make your hike more hassle-free, I offer the transport to and from the start and end of the trail.

For your further convenience, I can shuttle you from any of the airports directly to the start and again from the finish. Those travelling from overseas should note that I can supply backpacks and camping gear if needed.

If you have flown and I collect you from the airport, remember you cannot carry gas cylinders on the plane, so if you let me know I can pick up those last minute supplies you need for you.

I run an owner/driver shuttle transport business, and have the necessary “P.D.P.” licence and insurances in place.

The constant feedback from my passengers - very excited, tired, experienced, novice, young, old and a few despondent hikers (who have had to take an escape route for whatever reason) over the last 7 years, is always changing.

I aim to keep this site updated with all the latest tips for menus and those lovely little “gadgets” and “tricks” that help make hiking life more comfy!
