Hiking the Otter Trail - South Africa’s most Iconic Hike - Day 1

The otter trail is a beautiful 45km coastal hike on the southern tip of Africa. It is arguably one of South Africa’s finest hiking trails and we were lucky enough to hike this incredible trail.

So glad to be back on the trail with "Ticks" and "Little Chef". Looks like an epic adventure. We don't have a pre-hike medical exam requirement here in the US, although registration and permits are required for hiking in National Parks.

😂 your message made me smile 😃. The medical was news to me, we have nothing like that in the Uk. We don’t even need permits for our hikes. I do think it’s good to control these beautiful trails some what, a lot of nature along this trail and it should stay like that. Thanks for watching 👍🏼 much appreciated.

Amazing trail. Nice vid. Thanks for sharing this, for taking us along the rough coastal path.

[@RyansNextAdventure]

It was indeed a rough coastal path, and it gets more impressive as we hike along it.

Morning Ryan and Di, hope you’re both good and well! I'm looking forward to seeing more of this adventure, it looks like you had a great time... It always fascinates me how other countries regulate hiking and makes me wonder if permits would put more money in to the maintenance of our national parks and reduce mountain rescue callouts... Thanks for sharing Ryan 👍 🥾⛰️

[@RyansNextAdventure]

Hi Nathan, glad you enjoyed and there’s 4 more episodes to come 😊 even though I was surprised by the medical I do believe it’s a good idea. And the fees and permits are definitely a good idea as a lot of work goes into keeping this trail the way it is, especially with the cabins.

A really great video for us who would love to hike and no longer can. Very well filmed with interesting, interactive commentary. Looking forward to the next few days.

[@RyansNextAdventure]

Glad you enjoyed it and enjoyed the trail through our eyes 😊

Thanks for sharing your newest adventure with us. I’ve never heard of the Otter Trail. Your first day was filled with spectacular scenery! Can’t wait to see the rest of the episodes.

[@RyansNextAdventure]

I’m happy that I can introduce you to the Otter Trail, it is quite the path which only gets more impressive as we work our way along it.

[@ervinslens]

[@RyansNextAdventure]

Cheers Ervin 👍🏼

Hi Ryan and Di! I was so happy to see you two again on an Hiking Trail, I could not stop smiling. Again, as usual, your videos are just fantastic, I think South Africans are going to be in for a treat with this one. Very informative and helpful, thank you very much, can't wait for the rest!

[@RyansNextAdventure]

Hi Janette, glad you enjoyed our day 1. 4 more episodes to come 😊 I tried to put some helpful info in so people can get a feel for how this trail is. And how beautiful it is. Your support is always much appreciated and I’m happy my video made you smile 😊

[@dianel8001]

Thanks Jeanette!! We thought of you so much when we did Kruger but had car issues so didn't explore the road!

[@janetteclaassen4103]

Aww Di, so happy you enjoyed the Kruger and would have loved to have met you in person. Wishing you lots of love ❤️

[@charmainebull]

[@RyansNextAdventure]

Thank you, the trail gets better as we hike along it 😊

Funny woman and funny name. Di, don't you die! 😸

[@RyansNextAdventure]

😂 I can confirm Di completed the trail safely and without a major accident, I call her Di for short but her name is Diane. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

@@RyansNextAdventure Diane did well and passed the test, so you can promote her from girlfriend to wife. 😆
