Activity description

Abseiling (rappelling) is all about using a rope and other specialised equipment to descend a cliff. South Africa's renowned Kaaimans Gorge is one of the world's most beautiful spots for this thrilling adventure! 

You have a chance to do two 45-metre (147-feet) abseils right next to a magnificent waterfall. The first abseil is an easy one, to get you used to the idea of trusting the ropes and the second one is slightly more technical however, it is just as exhilarating. Your experienced instructor will not only ensure your safety during the excursion but will also guide you through the whole process.

What also makes this site special is that you land in a canoe at the bottom. You don't need to have abseiled before, however, this activity is not for the fainthearted! Please note that all participants must wear shoes with good grip that won't slip.

Don't miss this adventure of a lifetime and book this abseiling excursion down the Swart River Waterfall in Kaaimans Gorge, South Africa, today!

We had an amazing time abseiling with Eden Adventures. Our guides, Steve and Sid, really made the experience the most memorable and enjoyable. We were lucky to get a good group of other abseilers who were friendly and encouraging, and all equally inexperienced and cautious. However, Steve does a really wonderful job of coaching each participant down the rock face, and not making anyone feel the least bit rushed or pressured. He also was very funny and kept cracking jokes, which made everything better! We would 100% do it again, and look forward to trying the Kloofing Tour with Eden Adventures the next time we are in wilderness.
