Trail reference
The Cannon Trail
For the route description and current access information, follow the source responsible for the trail.
SANParks lists the Cannon Trail as a 7 km route starting beside the cannons in Cannon Rocks and estimates two to three hours for the walk.
Forest and coast in one route
SANParks describes the route as a loop split between a coastal forest path and beach. Its description places a viewpoint with a deck and benches about 1 km into the walk. These are details from the park's published trail description, not a report that each feature is accessible today.
The park also says bicycles are not allowed and walkers should remain on the marked trail. Read its full guidance before visiting; this page is an orientation to the source, not a substitute for park instructions.
Check before setting out
This guide does not confirm that the route is open or provide access instructions. Check the current SANParks page and contact the park through its published channels for the latest information.
