2 unusual facts about Lower Silvermine River Wetlands


Lower Silvermine River Wetlands

This reserve protects a section of Hangklip Sand Fynbos as well as the indigenous Cape wetlands of the Silvermine River.

Alien vegetation is still a threat, as is the excessive proliferation of the indigenous Bulrush (Typha) which is caused by unnatural quantities of minerals and nutrients being washed into the wetland from urban storm water.
