Hike the longest uninterrupted beach in the country! Book the 16 Mile Beach Hike for yourself, or bring your friends!

The 16 Mile Beach slack-pack hike between Yzerfontein and Tsaarsbank, in the West Coast National Park, offers a unique West Coast experience for those who are relatively fit and healthy, regardless of age.

With two-night’s stay-over in the lovely Yzerfontein, the organisers ensure that hikers, friends and family, will experience true West Coast cuisine, culture, history and hospitality! This guided trail requires hikers to be walking fit on Level 4 (where 5 is extremely fit) and is also suitable for groups or a family, but no children under 16 please.

This hike is subject to a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 20 hikers. Participants arrive in Yzerfontein at the overnight accommodation, enjoy a typical West Coast meal and information about the area, before departing on the hike early the following morning.

“This short but captivating and extremely affordable experience, situated only an hour away from Cape Town, is not only a wonderful personal challenge but also a great opportunity for a break-away – to disconnect from stress, reconnect to the beauty of nature and with yourself. This is an experience of West Coast living at its best!” says Anette Grobler, owner of Silent Steps.
