Southern Cape Bushbuck, Bush pigs, and wild birds can frequently be seen in the gardens of Nature's Valley village. This is where the famous Knysna Loerie is in its element. Daily dolphin and whale sightings are common at Nature’s Valley, especially when the Southern Right Whale comes close to the protected shore to calve between June and December.
Nature’s Valley is one of the most beautiful parts of the Garden Route with huge indigenous trees up to 1000 years old and is totally unique in that it is the only residential area within a South African National Park, and is also right on its own private beach. This exclusivity, with no further expansion allowed, ensures that an investment in Nature’s Valley property will always provide spectacular returns over the medium to long term.
This is the true Garden of Eden, a place to revitalise your soul – away from the stress of traffic and business, but still close enough to all amenities, such as shopping centres, golf courses, and airports. Magnificent scenic walks abound in this tranquil and secure environment.
Nature’s Valley is flanked by an escarpment on the one side and the Indian Ocean on the other side and forms part of the Tsitsikamma National Park. The Kouga, Kammanassie and "Groot Swart" mountain ranges stand guard over the valley.
