Cobham river trail and mountain hike
The River walk was easy, as we walked alongside the Pholela River. It was tempting to jump in but the water for us was icy cold. The mountain hike was steep but doable for the novice hiker. The views are breathtaking. The camp sites at Cobham were clean and well kept.
