Continuing Eastwards from the Garden Route along the coast leads into the Eastern Cape which offers a less developed continuation of the famous Western Cape driving route.
Highlights of the Eastern Cape include the excellent Addo Elephant Park close to Port Elizabeth, traditional Xhosa culture along the Wild Coast, the forest trails at Hogsback and the surfing mecca of Jeffrey's Bay.
A visit to South Africa's Eastern Cape is a great option for those looking to get off the more beaten track a little bit and experience varied landscapes, wildlife reserves, fabulous trekking routes wisome history and culture to boot.
