The stay in South Africa takes place without the Princess of Wales, who remained in England due to her state of health. Although she has completed her chemotherapy treatment, Princess Catherine is still recovering and such a trip was not an option. Prince William therefore began his visits alone this Monday by meeting a group of young Africans committed to the climate.

This Tuesday, November 5, 2024, on the second day of his stay in the south of the African continent, Prince William hiked in one of the most impressive natural sites in the country. Prince William was accompanied by Megan Taplin, Director of Table Mountain National Park, for this nature walk. Table Mountain is a massif that bears its name because of its flat shape.

Robert Irwin, a famous Australian conservationist, accompanied Prince William and other rangers on this hike. Robert Irwin is an Australian television personality, presenting wildlife programs. He was also chosen by Prince William to be one of the ambassadors for the Earthshot Prize foundation.
