Itinerary description

Nice trail in the Naukluft Mountains. In the first part the trail climbs to a plateau at 1860 m and then goes slightly downwards through a riverbed (dry in winter). The so-called 'Pool with chains' is somewhat technical but feasible if you are not afraid of heights. The hike cannot be done in the other direction as some passages become too difficult.
