Sleeping Beauty Hike


Nestled at the foot of the Sleeping Beauty mountain peak, a well-loved landmark which never fails to capture the imagination -Riversdale has earned its name of the Floral Paradise of the Garden Route because of the abundance of indigenous Fynbos - which covers the mountains and surrounding areas. This floral rainbow was in full bloom, which made it the perfect day for hiking and magnificent scenery! If you look closely, it is possible to make out Sleeping Beauty asleep on the Mountain. 
Early Sunday morning my parents and I packed the picnic basket and attempted this beautiful hike! 












It took us 3 hours to get to the top, where we enjoyed our picnic with the most amazing view!!! I would recommend this hike to all nature lovers, and to all the locals who have not yet experienced the true beauty of Riversdale! And I might add, remember to stretch afterwards because you definitely will feel it the next day!

Fun in the sun!!!
