In
addition to the game drive tour through the iSimangaliso Wetlands Park
(formerly known as the Greater St Lucia Wetlands Park), we also offer
a variety of guided St Lucia Wetland walking trails in the St Lucia Wetlands
Park. These include marine walks along our coastline, where the rocky
shores and their abundance of marine organisms are explored. Dolphins
and marine turtles are often sighted during the St Lucia Wetlands walks,
and though the Loggerhead turtle and Leatherback turtle only leave the
water to lay their eggs in our summer months, many of them are year round
residents, using the shallow reefs as feeding grounds. The St Lucia Wetlands
walking trails provide us with the opportunity to view turtles in their
natural environment, while feeding on the reefs.

Our St
Lucia Wetland walking Trails cover areas of dense sub-tropical dune forest
and open savannah, with some routes following the shore of Lake St. Lucia
and various wetlands. These walks not only give you the chance to see
a range of animal species on foot, but also offer incredible views over
the lake system and Indian Ocean, a wonderful way to experience this park.

|
Our
favourite walk is our combination Bush and Beach walking trail where both
these environments are covered, thus providing the chance to fully experience
the diversity of the St Lucia Wetlands Park. On this St Lucia walking
trail we often see dolphins, turtles, zebra and buffalo, all within an
hour of each other.

On
our bush walks we are accompanied by an experienced armed Zulu ranger
to ensure our safety. All St Lucia walking trails can be tailor made to
suit everyone, from the intrepid hiker to casual walkers.
