In Bulwer itself there are various hikes to go on, some of which start right from our lodge. We have indigenous forest just behind the lodge and there are hiking paths ranging from easy to challenging. The bird watching in the area is fantastic. Marutswa forrest is just outside Bulwer. This is the home of the endangered Cape Parrot as well as many other forest birds like the Knysna Loerie. If you like horse riding we can recommend various establishments around either Bulwer or Underberg. Horse trails also run through Marutswa forrest. The amount of mountain biking to do in the area is endless with many trails and tracks still waiting to be discovered. Bulwer is only 25 minutes drive from Underberg, which is a quaint little town with a fantastic view of the Southern berg. From here you can go on an organized tour up the Sani Pass. Passports are required. The Underberg area is well known for its fly-fishing, so if you like to fish, bring your rod! In summer there are various water activities. You can go swimming in big rock pools, 8km from the lodge, or hire tubes and go white water tubing down the river. We go tubing in the Umkomaas and Umzimkulu rivers. Guided white-water rafting happens at Hella Hella, just 50 kms away. Great meals are available at the two pubs in Bulwer and also at the hotel	Wild Sky Paragliding "If you've ever dreamt of flying, we'll make your dreams come true."
