Abseiling and Kloofing

Abseiling is the art of lowering oneself safely down a rope for example descending down mountain slopes and cliffs.  Abseiling is not for everyone, but for participants an exciting way to spend your time and take-in the views.

The ultimate adrenaline and scenic rush is hanging out high over Cape Town abseiling from Table Mountain. The 'long drop' is 112m high - and about a kilometre above the city - making it the world's highest commercial abseil.

The panoramic views from the top of Table Mountain are breathtaking, but the views from the side of it are even better. Descending down the side of a sheer cliff you will have Camps Bay, the Atlantic Seaboard and the deep blue ocean at your feet with the Twelve Apostles at your side.

A short distance from Knysna there is Storms River Gorge in Tsitsikamma National Park, Western Cape, with its fantastic scenic views. You can do a combination of abseiling and kloofing (canyoning) down the gorge which involves a 100m abseil into the ravine, a tubing trip down the river, a short walk out of the gorge and then a cycle back to the village.

You can also explore the Karkloof Nature Reserve waterfall in Kwa-Zulu Natal. It has a descent of 54m and at Howick Falls there is a daring drop of 107m. In comparison to other abseiling experiences in the country, Hazyview, Makuhlu descent doesn’t seem that high until you try it! At 27m, this abseil is great for first timers looking for an adrenaline rush.
