HOTTENTOT'S HOLLAND RAMBLE
(INNER SOUTH COAST LOOP)
Dawn finds us high on the slopes of the mountain range looking out across False Bay towards Cape Point in the far distance. We set off on foot through pristine displays of colourful mountain 'fynbos' in search of highly localized endemics resident in the area. From here we wend our way along the scenically impressive coastline looking for shorebirds and the odd pelagic seabird. A further walk takes us to a breeding colony of penguins and cormorants before heading inland to explore two wooded ravines and the surrounding slopes. This route offers the possibility of excellent whale sightings in season as an added bonus for the day.
Key Species : Cape Rockjumper, Cape Siskin, Yellow Bishop, Stone chat, Cape Rock Thrush, Victorin's Warbler, Neddicky, Bar-throated Apalis, African Penguin, Ground Woodpecker and Bank Cormorant.
