ABOUT
a brand new out of the ordinary event!!!
Come hike and 4x4 with us!
We will meet and start our hike from the parking lot of Shongweni Market. We will hike to the top of Wekeweke Falls, cross the stream and hike on sugarcane roads until we join the dirt road leading to Delville Station. We walk along some railway lines, through a service tunnel (yes, a real tunnel) to the bottom of the falls where we will have a nice break for snacks&cold drinks (bring your own) until our open game viewing vehicle comes to collect us.
From there we drive up to the old lookout tower with one of the best views in Durban, have a quick break, take a few pics and head back to our starting point! as easy as that! ;-)
