The forest is a home to several species of birds, monkeys, snakes and bushbucks. The thing with this forest is that you never know if you will find a snake however the park attendant reassured us that the snakes would not come out since we were quite a large group and there is safety in numbers. This did nothing for my phobia of the reptile species but nothing was going to deter my plans of exploration. The forest has tall trees that create a canopy and making sun rays almost impenetrable. We walked for a while in silence, appreciating nature and then we came to a clearing. The guide was showing us the different species of trees and flowers as we walked through the forest. We were advised to be as silent as possible so as not to disturb the wildlife in their natural habitat. We spotted a few birds and monkeys. We chose not to hike up to the hill since we were already quite tired, however if you choose to you will have a glorious view of the entire forest. The long grass is also quite dewy so having a pair of boots would certainly come in handy. I would go back to hike up to the hill and enjoy the small waterfall in the forest and most certainly carry a waterproof pair of shoes!
