The Otter Hiking Trail

DAY 2 - NGUBU HUTS TO SCOTT HUTS
Distance: Approximately 7.9 kilometers.
Av Hiking Time: 5.5 - 6 hours.
Highlights: Skilderkrans views and Bloubaai beach.
Be prepared for: Steep hills - lots of them!

Day 2 of the Otter Trail is probably the most varied day of the hike and possibly one of the toughest.

Forest, fynbos, views for whale and dolphin spotting, tough climbs and descents, the Skilderkrans Quartz Promontory, and of course the Bloubaai Beach are just some of the challenges/beauties you pass through.

Don't miss Bloubaai Beach - a great place for lunch. Relax and catch your breath, as straight afterwards you have the biggest climb of the hike - very tough, but an awesome view from the top.

Scott Hut is situated at the Geelhoutbos River Mouth, a stunning setting.
