About Hiking South Africa

Connecting South Africa’s hiking community — one trail at a time.

Hiking South Africa (HSA) was founded on a simple idea: that the best hiking experiences are shared. What began as a passion project has grown into a national platform powered by the people who use it — hikers, guides, gearheads, nature lovers and trail newbies alike.

We believe hiking builds not just strong legs, but stronger communities. That’s why HSA exists — to create a trusted space where people can share knowledge, swap stories, and help each other explore more of South Africa’s incredible wild spaces.

Whether you’re looking for reliable trail info, the best gear for your next adventure, expert tips, or just a place to connect — this is your digital basecamp.

This platform is made by hikers, for hikers. And it’s always open.
