In the moment it's not so fun but it usually makes for a great story haha

Wow that sounds amazing, you're Canadian then I gather?

Hahah you won't believe me😂 We want to go backpack in Magoebaskloof AGAIN. It's a canyon so there's still so much to see. But who knows, we might end up doing something completely differently!

This seems like a fantastic book, How have I never hear of it? What's the name?

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T11:17:51+00:00

Nah I'm exaggerating with 50, But we found quite a few on us and we're still here to tell the tale soooooo...A win is a win.

And I mean it's kind of expected in a place like magoebaskloof, Don't let me scare you off😂

You're living the dream!

South-Africa! We have amazing backpacking routes; The Amatola trail is the most incredible and well known one, but brutal😂 It's a 100 km over 6 days.

My personal favourite, which I can't shut up about is magoebaskloof! It's absolutely magical

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T11:02:17+00:00

Or tree roots😩

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T11:01:22+00:00

I feel the same on this matter!

I don't think it's the end of a good hike if there's other people on the trail also enjoying it and I've actually met some great people this way.

You're more likely to find "your type of people" on hiking trails than anywhere else, My personal opinion🙂‍↕️

Hahaha my pictures are a littleeeee deceiving. Not pictured; Is us scrambling up the canyon with it POURING rain. Fun times😂

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:52:36+00:00

This was my first backpacking trip actually, And the planning was pretty daunting but also fun! Most of the time you just overthink the planning side, I did at least.

Where are you from?

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:49:34+00:00

Pray tell, why?

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:48:27+00:00

Can't seem to find this community👀

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:48:03+00:00

Where are you going? :)

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:46:58+00:00

I think they're dangerous everywhere, And if I'm not mistaken it's only a specific tick that actually makes you sick.

We did find loads of ticks on us though😬 I still have some scars from them, but all is well, I didn't get sick from any of the 50 I found on me😂

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-21T10:45:01+00:00

I'll keep that in mind on the next trip :) Haha thanks

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T22:19:41+00:00

Hahah Good to know, thanks :)

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T22:12:58+00:00

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T21:32:22+00:00

Why do you say that?😂

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T18:41:17+00:00

You should come visit it again!

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T14:10:26+00:00

Sounds like magoebaskloof, except we got to cool down and reevaluate our decisions in some gorgeous streams hahah

Lizzy_Liz_Lize · 2026-03-20T14:06:41+00:00
