Directions
Knysna is situated on the N2 which runs from Cape Town via George to the West through Plettenberg Bay to Port Elizabeth and beyond to the East.
When driving from the West there are a number of alternatives to the N2, for example the Cape Route R62 from Cape Town, or the 7 Passes Road from George. These will add extra time to the journey.
From the East the R102 from Port Elizabeth can be used for some of the journey, until rejoining the N2 before Storms River.
Note that when driving along the N2 between Storms River and The Crags the N2 becomes a Toll Road. The booth is at Tsitsikamma Plaza.
The alternative route, the R102, cannot be used to bypass this as both the Storms River Pass and Bloukrans River Pass are closed.
Note:
Some online or mobile map services will direct you from the N2 (Main Road) up one of the many back streets, e.g. Lloyd, Fletcher, Hospital Hill, or Handel Streets.
It is a lot easier to ignore these and to use Short Street and, when facing the 6 Westhill wall, turn right into Fletcher Street for entrances to the property on the left.
Do not turn off the N2 into Fletcher Street, as it does not connect directly with Fletcher Street outside the Guest House.
