Rock Climbing

There are two climbing sections; Main-Crag and Hidden Buttress on Swartvlei Equestrian Estate. A day fee of R150 per person is payable. Access has to be arranged and an indemnity form need to be completed at the office before attempting the climb.

These two climbing sections boast 12 amazing 20-25m meter climbing routes that consist of skin-friendly yet coarse sandstone with great friction. There is something for everyone, from the beginner to the very experienced.

The climbs range from grade 15/4c (Large holds and vertical rock face) through to
grade 24/6a (Small holds with horizontal overhangs).
Keith James discovered the routes in 1987. The routes have since been retro-bolted.

It is of the utmost importance that the property is respected when climbing this destination.
