The
first
time
I
stayed
in
this
beautiful
place
was
a
while
back,
in
2013.
Wild
Spirit
got
recommended
to
us
by
friends,
so
we
gave
it
a
try.
And
it
did
not
disappoint!
Over
the
last
decade
I
have
been
there
many
times
and
it
always
feels
like
coming
home.
Wild
Spirit
Backpackers
Lodge
is
a
real
get
away,
a
proper
retreat,
to
recharge
your
batteries.
(The
many
ginger
cats
there
will
show
you
how
to
do
it.)
If
you
want
and
need
you
can
be
on
your
own
and
reconnect
with
yourself
while
enjoying
what
this
place
has
to
offer:
Beautiful
walks,
bicycles
for
rent
to
explore
the
area,
in
summer
you
can
jump
in
their
grandios
pool,
or
walk
down
to
their
small
but
great
waterfall,
or
you
can
drive
down
to
Natures
Valley
beach
to
swim,
to
hike,
to
explore,
to
rest...
On
the
other
hand,
if
you
want
to
meet
a
bunch
of
interesting
people
and
socialize,
do
yoga
classes,
have
guided
bike
tours,
chat
around
the
bonfire,
listen
to
live
music,
dance
and
have
fun
-
that
is
the
place
for
it,
too.
And
if
you
have
kids
I
guarantee
you,
THIS
IS
the
place
to
go
to!
So
much
space
to
run
around
and
so
much
magic
to
see.
(fireflies
at
night,
too!)
There
are
many
cats
and
dogs
and
even
a
horse.
Plus
it
just
feels
so
safe
there.
Wild
Spirit
Backpackers
lodge
is
located
in
the
Crags,
on
a
quiet
farm
with
amazing
views
over
the
Tsitsikamma
mountain
range.
You
can
book
a
bed
in
a
dorm,
or
enjoy
a
private
room
with
ensuite
bathroom,
or
camp.
I
did
and
enjoy
it
all.
The
owners
really
care
about
the
environment,
you
can
see
and
feel
it.
As
a
guest
from
Europe,
I
like
to
get
reminded
how
precious
water
is.
(In
summer
you
are
often
requested
to
have
short
showers.)
You
can
use
their
communal
kitchen
to
make
your
own
meal
or
-
what
I
highly
recommend
-
get
dinner
from
Wild
Spirit.
I
was
vegan
for
many
years
and
they
always
made
an
effort
to
accommodate
me.
(Vegetarian
options
are
available
anyway).
There
is
a
Farmstall
close
by,
too
and
other
really
nice
restaurant
options
if
you
do
not
mind
a
10-20mins
drive.
Ah
and
last
but
not
least,
they
have
a
aquaint
little
shop
with
jewellery
and
other
little
things
they
sell
there,
plus
a
great
resident
hand
poke
tattoo
artist
doing
her
magic.
It
really
feels
like
home
away
from
home
and
I
am
so
grateful
to
have
found
this
place.
