Last chance for Sani flower walk

Enjoy an outing to Sani Pass for what might be the last time before the road works take over.

WESSA is inviting people to the Sani Pass Wild Flower Walk Sunday 31 January 2016.

The upgrading of Sani Pass has finally been approved, despite WESSA's fight against the idea of a hard surface, and work is likely to start soon. This may be your last opportunity to walk the Pass before roadworks take over.

Add a short walk through the botanical wonderland of the Lesotho plateau to your exciting day on the Sani Pass.

Cost is R400 per person which includes transport up Sani Pass, a 90 minute walk around Sani Top exploring different flowers in a different botanical niche, accompanying botanical experts, and transport back from SA border post to Giant’s Cup Café from 3pm onwards.

What you will need to take includes a passport, as you will be exiting SA at an official border and crossing into Lesotho, hiking boots, lunch, lots of water to drink, a hiking stick, a hat, warm clothing, raingear and flower books, binoculars, and cameras.

The group will meet at 6.30am sharp at the Giant’s Cup Cafe, 10.5km down the (tarred) Sani Pass Road.

Hats, bottled water, snacks, Elsa Pooley wild flower field guide books, Sani Pass flowers, mammals, birds and reptiles posters, WESSA publications, local books and maps, indigenous plant species, Beth Fey cards and work by local artists will be on sale.

To book for the walk, contact Sani Lodge Backpackers on 033 702 0330, 083 987 3071 or email info@sanilodge.co.za

Accommodation for the night before is also available at Sani Lodge Backpackers. Visit: www.sanilodge.co.za
