The Garden Route corridor follows old trade and travel routes; the area combines indigenous Xhosa heritage with later colonial farming and forestry economies that shaped current land use.
Conservation
Monkeyland and Birds of Eden operate as rescue and rehabilitation sanctuaries funded partly by entrance fees; visitors are asked not to feed animals and to follow guide instructions to minimize disturbance.
