The boardwalk for everyone!

Managed by the uMhlanga UIP

and supported by Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife, this community-funded, community-minded project located in the uMhlanga Lagoon Nature Reserve provides a lovely, coastal walk-in-the trees experience for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks to the support of local businesses and the public, so far we have raised enough to complete phase one which includes the 250m boardwalk and the Forest Café powered by Bike & Bean.

Help us complete the next 750m by donating today!
