The public response to The Secret Elephants Forest Experience has been excellent. Rozanne Savory who is handling bookings and enquiries, has been inundated with calls. I hosted the first two forest experiences recently and was moved by the participants response to this introduction to the Knysna elephants extraordinary world. It is a very holistic experience, not restricted to the elephants though, but to everything around us, the birds, amphibians, invertebrates, the myriad of mushrooms (see the photograph of the The Red Stinkhorn mushroom), special endemic species such as the Knysna dwarf chameleon, and of course, the wonderful trees.
The forest experience is undertaken at a fairly leisurely pace through the central Knysna forests, and to maintain that it is a personal and unique experience. I will keep the numbers of participants to only eight at one time. Of the elephants themselves, we marvelled at our discovery of age old elephant pathways. But this experience is certainly not about seeking the physical presence of the elephants, but is far deeper, a spiritual connection to the Knysna elephants of the present day, and those of the past. Walking the pathways is almost a pilgrimage experience, spiritually celebrating the world's most southerly elephants.
