One of my favourite outdoor spaces and right in the middle of the city. There are various access points to the Baaken's Valley, but I chose this one today. The Lower Guinea Fowl trail is part of Settler's Park and a beautiful space to just get out into nature. Bird and butterfly life abound and the early morning bush smells are enough to make you feel grounded. Coupled with a brisk walk, it's a great opportunity to get those endorphins going. I often walk alone, but remain vigilant. I don't advise walking at dusk or too early in the morning. The Baaken's Valley extends for 22 kilometres through Port Elizabeth.
