Great bird life. Wild horses a first for us. The 5km walk not well marked, and involves either bare foot slush or gum boots.

Such a beautiful place to walk. Last time I was there with my grandparents we saw the wild horses. I love horses and I used to horse ride so I definitely loved it there

Very quiet and secluded. Worth the visit though. Walked to the birdwatch. As we were about to leave the wild horses came walking up to the water. They were so quiet that we didn't even hear them. It was a beautiful sight

Water level may be high close to the shore, but the horse trails should be fine.

I'd give it 5 stars if it weren't for the broken wood pathway. But overall it is a serene and beautiful reserve. The horses were a sight to behold. Watching these animals so close up was soothing and calming. Hypnotic. It made me want to set up a picnic and just sit there taking in the wildlife. On my next visit I'd like to make my way over to the beach front.

Pure nature

Horses are just to far away. Very few still left. Very nice to see the wild houses. Walkway is very good and well done

Wild horses and great for bird lovers. Don’t miss the turn off from R44 as the sign is right at the turning. Look for a sign that says HOPE FARM and follow the dirt road all way to lagoon. The walkway is Wheelchair accessible

How very beautiful. Nature at its best!

Love to go walking here to do a bit of bird watching or to look for the wild horses. The wooden walkway needs a bit of attention in places, but its still pretty safe to walk on. Take a picnic basket and enjoy a quiet outing in nature.

What a gem. Well worth the visit. Not much birds, think it will be better during winter when the water ljne is higher. We did get to see the wild horses, and that was magical.

Great view of horses and nice trail with mountain views.

Such a private little gem, amazing views, will return to photograph wildlife and the horses.

Absolutely Superb => our lucky day ❤️👌💜

This bird watching haven is a truely unique and safe habitat with brilliant bird hide and walk to suit all.

Some time you are fortunate to see the wild horses here

We were fortunate to see the wild horses up close

Great natural space to walk, bird watch and if you're lucky spot some wild horses

Spotted these 2 "birds" in front of the Bird hide at Rooisand Nature Reserve near Kleinmond, Western Cape. They probably had good reason to be there, but they certainly spoiled my outing. I had to hike to a different part of the Reserve and could not get close to any feathered birds. Apologies therefore for the quality of the photos of what I suspect were Curlew Sandpiper, Common Ringed Plover, Little Stint & Common Greenshank.

Please be aware that you'll need a 4 X 4 to get to the bird hide as the road is primarily of soft beach sand and hills. Our opel got stuck in the sand patch after the gravel entrance.

There was not much water in the pans so limited waterfowl viewing. Strange to see the herd of wild horses though. They looked healthy

The variety of waders was phenomenal. We saw Sandpipers, Greenshanks, 3 different Plovers, Sanderlings, Avocets , Sandpipers,Stilts and Greater flamingos, amongst others.Also a range of ducks & geese. A couple of Marsh Harriers, 3 Jackal buzzards and a black shouldered kite. Malachite & Orange-breasted sunbirds as well.

Good spot for a drive and for bird watching. Lovely board walk along the Botrivier lagoon.

Good experience kids enjoy they self

Beautiful restful tranquility at its best watching the wild horses graze and settle for the night

Lovely setting and scenery. Small amount of bird life.

Lovely place. Unfortunately seemed slightly unmanaged as there were people with dogs and alien plants. But all in all very nice. A gem.

Great birdwatching from the shores of the estuary as well as from the well positioned bird hide. An easy walk to the hide. We even got to see the wild horses and our first ever Denham's Bustard.

Clean n quiet shore n the views are spectacular.

Wonderful location, specifically for birdwatching! Just a pity it is clear that there is not maintenance taking place! The exotic invaders are taking over!!😢

Did the 2 day highlands trail from Iona wines, this was past of day 1 22km

Few kilometers of gravel before reaching actual carpark.

Feb 2019 Enjoyed the walk but did not choose a good time to visit. Water low not many birds

Great nature reserve very near Kleinmond...nice stoll to the bird hide. Just be careful to properly lock your vehicle and hide valuables from eyesight.

Beautiful place to get away from the city

Well looked after Wild Horse

Beautiful. Peaceful.

Birdhide via boardwalk. No other means of exploring the reserve.

Wild horses

A walk/run in beautiful nature. Well kept boardwalk and informative birdhide, to watch the birds from. And we had a spectacular variety of them to observe.
