Hostels in Sedgefield, South Africa

Sedgefield, South Africa, is one of the least-visited towns on the Garden Route’s main route. However, that does not mean it is not worth stopping by for a day or two. The Garden Route is too big to entirely cover from a hostel in one town, but due to Sedgefield’s central location, you can easily cover the western half of the Garden Route if you have your own car and base yourself in Sedgefield. Not only is there the beautiful and quiet beaches on the Indian ocean in Sedgefield, there is also the Swartvlei Lake to the west where you can rent a boat or canoe to explore the water. Hiking the nature trails that surround Sedgefield or rent a bike to explore the area are other possibilities. But there are also places of interest that can be reached from Sedgefield. Both Wilderness and Knysna are within twenty minutes driving in western or eastern direction and many beautiful quiet beaches can be found in between. Knysna is one of the biggest towns on the garden route and rather a charming town than a beach destination. Nice cafes and restaurants can be found in the marina, offering lovely views and if you do not need to drive back yourself it is worth checking out the local craft beer brewery. If you decide that you will want to stay here, the supply of hostels in Sedgefield, South Africa, are quite limited.
