Knysna: Featherbed Nature Reserve set to reopen!

One of Knysna's biggest tourist attractions, the Featherbed Nature Reserve, just announced it long-awaited re-opening. The privately-owned Nature Reserve, situated on the Western Head in Knysna, is set to open again on 15 October 2018. The Knysna Fires of 2017 destroyed about 90% of the vegetation in the Nature Reserve, with only patches of forest and scrub left uncharred. The owners therefore decided to close the Featherbed Nature Reserve so that the eco-system had time to recover.
