Join Struik Nature at the Harold Porter Book & Craft Shop in Betty’s Bay for the launch of Hiking The Fish!

Expert hikers Henk Blanckenberg and Lizet Meyer will be in conversation with Ira Blanckenberg to launch their new book.

In a visual presentation, they will discuss their experience of hiking the Fish River Canyon trail and share tips on how to prepare for this multiday trek.

The Fish River Canyon in southern Namibia is one of Africa’s most impressive sights. Following the river that is wedged between massive cliffs, the Fish River Canyon Trail is the region’s most challenging full-colour photographs to bring this exhilarating five-day hike to life.

A detailed introduction to the canyon and its surrounds is followed by chapters that cover planning and preparation; bookings and accommodation; hiking, cooking and sleeping gear; nutrition and meal planning; and first aid. A comprehensive day-by-day route description forms the core of the book.
