Located in The Crags, which is +/- 20 kms (16 miles) east of Plettenberg Bay, Rocky Road is the gateway between the country’s Western Cape and Eastern Cape Provinces. We are 15 minutes away from the world's highest bungy at Bloukrans Bridge and a mere 10 minute drive down a spectacular mountain pass to the unspoiled Natures Valley beach, frequently described as the “Jewel of The Garden Route”.

Rocky Road is far from the daily bustle of urban living. From our well maintained gardens we enjoy spectacular views of the Tsitsikamma Mountain range as well as Peak Formosa, the highest in the range. Our adjoining 3 hectare forest has an easy ‘mini-trail’ to view our streams, waterfall and rock pool – one of the many great spots to chill-out.

Rocky Road is a 5 hectare small-holding set amidst indigenous forest and open grazing pastures - Our in house adventure centre, Rocky's Adventure Kitchen will help you make the most of our nearby ocean, scenic sandy beaches, rugged mountains, river gorges and estuaries, as well as numerous varied wild-life attractions. Whether you want to bungy, sky-dive, zipline over waterfalls, explore some of our hiking trails or visit many of the alternative attractions on our activity list, there is something for everyone.

Accommodation options are dorm bed & bunk rooms, double rooms and fully equipped luxury tents. Our two large entertainment areas have numerous fireplaces and braai (BBQ) pits,a well-stocked lively bar and our hot tub/splash pool facilities are great areas in which to mingle and mix with fellow travelers. We also have an indoor big-screen TV area for special events whilst our separate office area provides internet access.

Shuttle services to all local activities and places of interest, between Storms River and Plettenberg Bay, are available, as are regular runs to Natures Valley.

Full board, half-board and self-catering options are available.

Rocky Road Backpackers is also the host home to volunteers deployed on active community development projects in nearby Kurland Village by Willing Workers in South Africa.
