Forestway Outdoor Centre is situated on the edge of the Kologha Forest Reserve, just 8km from Stutterheim on the N6. The name Kologha is derived from Xolo: the Xhosa word for peace. In the original it was Xholora – a place of or people of peace. For us, it is God’s peace!

Forestway offers a unique experience of the Outdoors and God’s creation, running Environmental Education camps, Leadership Training, Team Building and Adventure Activities. Open to all ages, our main business is school camps. There are also facilities for day conferences and training events. The focus is on group bookings.
