SLIDE INTO HISTORY!

Think you can slide like Madiba? Come to Qunu and prove it! Book your adventure!!!

Every Mandela Trail in Qunu begins with a little fun! Before you follow Madiba’s footsteps down to the Qunu River and towards his home, you have to take on the legendary sliding stone just as young Madiba did.

And if you’re feeling adventurous, take the longer cultural and heritage hike to Mqhekezweni and walk even deeper into the story.

Come slide, hike, explore and experience heritage where the story began. 🫣😂
