Tips from locals
A range of hiking trails for all abilities. Visit a small waterfall, impressive rock stacks or the summit of Phillipskop itself with stunning views across the Overberg. There is also Phillipskop Cave, a local heritage site. It was once home to Khoi and San people and contains the only recorded rock art on the Cape Whale Coast.
Get to experience the unique fynbos flora and some fauna if you’re lucky as well as bushmen cave paintings. A very special place to visit!
Phillipskop shows remnants of indigenous people that used to roam this area thousands of years ago. Go for a hike and view the beautiful rock art site.
