Welcome to Pledge Nature Reserve
For those unfamiliar with the reserve, we are a ten-hectare declared nature reserve, with Forest and Fynbos, streams and ponds, and beautiful views of the Heads. With altogether 5km of pathways, the lower area is level and easy to walk, and then a few inclines and steps lead to our upper viewpoint with picnic tables and benches scattered along the way. First-time visitors often comment in awe on how absolute the change is from the hustle and bustle of town to being completely enveloped by nature after only a few steps into the reserve! Expect to hear and see some of the 101 species of birds observed, 360 species of plants, many insects, and if you are lucky, you might get a glimpse of our shy animals, Porcupine, Grysbokkie, and Cape Genet, and there is a good chance that the troop of inquisitive Vervet Monkeys that move through the reserve from time to time will be there to entertain you!
Our opening times are Tuesday - Friday : 8h00 to 17h00 and Weekends and holidays: 8h00 to 16h00. We are closed on Monday. Entry permits are R30 for adults and R10 for children under 12. For those who wish to visit often, yearly membership cards are available at R250 for individuals and R400 for families. To arrange for school-, tour- or other group visits contact us on 044 382 3712 | WhatsApp 082 773 4118 | info@pledgenaturereserve.org. Perfectly situated in the heart of Knysna, the reserve�s entrance, through the Oyster Walk Apartments, is accessible from the Main Road through the Milkwood Square building site, across from the Knysna Mall. As the building project develops, our access point will move to Fitchat Street, but we will keep you posted about this here and on our social media pages.
