Jungle Gateways

A 7km hike through a natural and indigenous forest leads us to the Thaba waterfall. Waterfall swimmers are going to have the time of their life. During the hike, expect to do bird watching and probably see some Columbus monkeys.

This is a beginner-friendly hike and kid-friendly (12 years and above).
