The Alexandra hiking trail is a lovely hike through the forests and the beach. It is not for the faint hearted though as it is 19km on day one and 16km the following day. There is no water source on the route so I suggest taking at least 4litres of water for the hike, trust me, you will need every drop. I would suggest making a stop by the backpackers just before you start the beach hike to get a rest and some food before you start the long beach hike. Our hiking time for day 1 was 7 seven hours, excluding the stop at the backpackers. We saw dolphins as we were hiking towards the hut which was a beautiful site after a long day of hiking. The hut has no electricity and there is no cellphone service. There is a gas stove and cutlery in the kitchen with a sponge and dishwashing liquid. There are candles as well as beds to sleep in, just bring a sleeping bag. There is rain water from the tank which is the only water source on the route. The view from the hut is amazing and I would suggest arriving earlier to catch the sunset from the balcony and unwind before day 2. While it was hot, I enjoyed doing the hike in summer as the days are longer and we spent a good time outside in the balcony. Starting the hike on day 2 at about 5/6am might be a good idea as the combination of heat and sand dunes is torcherous. It took us 3 hours to complete the sand dunes, it might take you a bit quicker if you are all fit. A great and challenging hike overall, I would certainly bring a bigger backpack next time to carry more water.
