**** Route plotted here ****
Hooray, holiday time! Four of us spent a week in the gorgeous Garden Route. Our first walk in the area was a meander from our accommodation on Goose Valley Estate down to Keurbooms Lagoon.

We followed the wooden boardwalk through the fynbos.

It was just a short walk down to the lagoon.

From here we looked upriver. The large houses of Keurboomsrivier could be seen on the opposite shore.

In the opposite direction we could see Plettenberg Bay and Robberg in the distance, with wide stretches of shallow lagoon and beach in front of us.

We followed the path for a bit, and then wandered out onto the sand, enjoying the fresh air and open space.

This unspoilt river estuary is home to many birds. An information board gave us more information about their habits and habitat.

Storm clouds had been gathering for a while. Once the thunder and lightning started we decided to make our way back before the rain arrived.
