Enjoy this awesome adventure in a shady gorge in the beautiful Magaliesberg Mountains not too far from Johannesburg, South Africa

KLOOFING, also known as Canyoning, Gorge walking or Canyoneering is an exhilarating adventure!


First, its up the river valley, a sunny hike across quartzite rock to the gully used to access the typical Magaliesberg Kloof. Down to the stream with magnificent cliffs closing in around you, wading through crystal clear pools, clambering over massive boulders as you wind up the watercourse.


The pace is hectic, so when you stop for a well deserved lunch break you'll be keen to rest under the shade of the trees in the cool forested gorge.


Then descending, adrenalin pumps as you enjoy the vertical adventures of, abseiling down a waterfall, plunging into pools and the thrill of sliding down smooth stone alongside the stream in this beautiful gorge. The rock jump is optional but the swimming is not.  The descent pace is fast and quite likely to leave you breathless!

 

We include; all kloofing gear, guides and park fees. This is a full day of adventure, it's advisable to be fit, confident with heights and have a great sense of adventure!

 

IMPORTANT: You have to be able to swim  to participate in this adventure.

 

The natural gorge changes with the seasons and weather, so although the above description is the plan, be prepared for changes!

 

Please note the season closes between June and October, try the Hike, Climb and Abseil, a great alternative during winter!
