Having worked in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Middle East, Trevor left London in 2014. 9 months and 60 000 kms later, whilst circumnavigating the African continent in an old Land Rover, Trevor stopped in Ballito, South Africa, and fell in love with KZN. Trevor and Andrea are passionate about wildlife, nature and the ocean, the avid foodies realised that South Africa and Kzn in particular, has so much more to offer those, who may be searching for something unique.The beaches and mountains of Kzn are unsurpassed anywhere in the world, say the extremely well travelled couple. Trevor with European corporate catering experience, created Le Picnique. Andrea, Trevor's partner, is vastly xperienced in hospitality and tourism internationally and is the perfect hostess. We encourage our guests to enjoy a hosted dinner at our exquisite property.
Everton Molweni walking/running trail This very scenic 3 kilometre nature trail winds its way alongside the Molweni River upstream from Acutts Road bridge, through riverine forest to Everton Falls. At the Falls the trail crosses the river and meanders back to the bridge. It takes approximately an hour to walk the trail. If you walk quietly you may see some of the following mammals: Bushpig, Bushbuck, Grey Duiker, Blue Duiker (the smallest of all duiker species), Water Mongoose and Caracal, amongst others. Flitting around in the trees or soaring way above you will be Crowned Eagle, Knysna Turaco, Mountain Wagtail, Narina Trogon, Green Twinspots and many more. And if you look very carefully you will see numerous butterflies and moths and maybe even the rare Pinkfooted millipede that occurs only in this region, or the endangered Kloof frog. Please note the have two very friendly rescue dogs, and one rescue cat, that are considered family.
