Feedback response
Zebre River Lodge is a great place to go walking – self-guided or with a guide. The owners are working on a map booklet and an overview of all the trails on the Farm at present. In the mean time if you are interested in doing some walks in the area, please do discuss this with Rob and Marianne on your arrival, and they will sit down with you and work out which walks/activities you would like to do and provide you with any applicable maps.
