The Whale Trail is a five-day slackpacking hike in South Africa’s De Hoop Nature Reserve, stretching 55 kilometers from Potberg to Koppie Alleen. Designed as a multi-day wilderness journey, it unfolds over five days and five nights, offering hikers a blend of rugged terrain and coastal scenery.
The trail is moderately strenuous, with the first two days being the most challenging due to steep ascents and rocky terrain. It is suitable for hikers comfortable with multi-day hikes.
