Itinerary description

|
Show original
Nice route and usually very simple. It has no loss. It ends in a beautiful waterfall, many of the steps are made with wooden walkway and there are several picnic areas. Ideal to know this National Park walking and could be combined with a canoe ride, since the route continues parallel to the river.

It emphasizes the amount of different birds that we can observe and a step of the river with a kind of mobile platform very funny.

Start next to a bridge, near the camping area. We will find an official booth of the National Park in which we will have to pay the corresponding fees, as it happens practically in all the reserves of South Africa.
