The FERNKLOOF NATURE RESERVE in Hermanus is certainly one of the brightest assets on the Cape Whale Coast.
One of the most beautiful aspects of life in Hermanus is that even when you're in the centre of the village, nature is just a few meters away.
Fernkloof Nature Reserve covers 1800 ha in the Kleinrivier Mountains above Hermanus and ranges in altitude from sea level to 842 m. The reserve lies on the northern side of the town with a 60 km network of trails.
These provide the opportunity for people of all fitness levels to go out and enjoy some exercise and fresh air. A display of some of the flowers that can be found in the veld is permanently maintained at the Fernkloof Visitors' Center. The various trails offer magnificent and unequaled views of Walker Bay, the Hemel en Aarde Valley and Maanskynbaai.
In late 1957, the Reserve was proclaimed by the Provincial Council of the Cape. It protects coastal and fynbos habitats and a small patch of evergreen forest. Parts of the coastal area including the Cliff Path Nature Area, the Mossel River valley and the area from De Mond to Kettle Point, including the mouth of the Vogelgat River and part of the Klein River lagoon.
There is no other place on earth where so many different (plant) species can be seen growing in such close proximity. In Fernkloof, 1,474 species have thus far been collected and identified.
Grey rhebok, Cape grysbok, klipspringer, baboon, mongoose, and dassie are present in small numbers. Others such as porcupine, genet, and hare are nocturnal, and these mammals are seldom seen.
The Fernkloof Nature Reserve in Hermanus is generally regarded as one of the top bird-watching destinations in the Western Cape Province. The sheer natural beauty of the mountains, together with the huge diversity of Fynbos species, certainly places this reserve on the wish list of most visitors to the region interested in the natural environment.
