Secret Garden: Brown Hooded Kingfisher Trail

Embark on a journey through the serene beauty of the Brown Hooded Kingfisher Trail, a hidden gem.

Take a walk through the peaceful Brown Hooded Kingfisher Trail, a less-known treasure right next to the famous Kingfisher trail at Ebb and Flow. It might not be as popular, but it’s a journey worth taking.

The trail starts off easy and slowly introduces you to scenery that feels like a secret garden from Japan. There are dark streams and stepping stones that add a bit of mystery and magic to your walk. Sure, there are a few spots that might be tough if you’re just looking for an easy walk, but the beauty of the place just grows the further you go.

As you move along, you’ll find spots of pure calmness, with only the sounds of nature around. Some folks might decide to turn around at certain points, but if you keep going, you’ll be rewarded with stunning views. Eventually, you’ll come across a beautiful waterfall. It’s not big, but it’s the perfect place to have a picnic and just relax in the middle of nature.

Don’t forget to bring along some mosquito spray, as there are quite a few mosquitoes out there. But even with them around, the Brown Hooded Kingfisher Trail is an incredible place to explore nature’s hidden beauties and find some peace and quiet.

Costs: You can obtain a permit from Sanparks Ebb and Flow offices
