Slackpacking is backpacking without the hassle, allowing hikers to travel light while someone else takes care of the overnight bags. This comprehensive full-colour guide with maps and photographs covers everything the slackpacker needs to know about South Africa's top leisure trails. Every day of each trail is described in detail, covering useful information such as distance, terrain, average walking time, cost, the degree of difficulty, the recommended group size, the type of accommodation offered, when best to walk, what to take and who to contact to make all the arrangements. What a pleasure! This title covers luxury, guided and catered trails, community-run guided trails and unguided, self-catered trails.
