Gradual at the beginning with a well-maintained sandy path we will pass the first waterfall visible from far on the approach. With a quick stop and possible swim on the warmer days, we will carry on to the second waterfall. Just before we enter the kloof there are a few quick steps up and over before we arrive at the river.
