Photoblog: Enchanted Hogsback Forest.

During our #SAroadtrip, we visited a place called Hogsback.  By far the most lush, green place in South Africa.  Enveloped between endless mountains, it is home to magical forests, trails and streams and holds more waterfalls in one area than anywhere else in the world.  It seriously is no wonder why I didn’t want to leave at all. Here’s a collection of images we captured whilst mountain biking and hiking up the mountain and through the forests.
