		Fynbos Tour
	The picture above, taken about 5 kilometers from entrance of the reserve, shows the botanical splendor of fynbos. The mountain in the background is Paulsberg, the first in the range that makes up the steep cliffs of the nearby Cape Point.
	The Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve is only 7750 hectares of land, and yet sustains more varieties of plants then the whole of British Isles. The world consists of six floral kingdoms, most of which cover vast areas. By comparison, the size of the Cape Floral Kingdom or fynbos as it is locally called, is small, yet it contains more then 8500 species, making it the richest floral kingdom, for it's size, worldwide. 6 000 of these species are found nowhere else in the world. The Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve forms part of this kingdom, and sustains 1100 indigenous plants, of which a number are endemic (occurs naturally nowhere else in the world).
	Some of the information on this page from the Cape of Good Hope Brochure, part of the Cape Peninsula National Park.
