FOR YOUR INTEREST – BLYDE RIVER CANYON
The Blyde River Canyon is one of the most spectacular canyons in Africa and its
cliffs rise between 600m-800m from the riverbed. At the ‘Three Rondavels
viewpoint’ (also called ‘The Three Sisters’) is an unforgettable view of three
huge rock spirals rising out of the far wall of the canyon. Their tops appear to
have a hut-like rounded roof. Where the Blyde River (‘river of joy’) and the
Treur River (‘river of sorrow’) meet, water erosion has formed one of the most
remarkable geological phenomena in the country, known as ‘Bourke’s Luck
Potholes’. Over thousands of years, surreal cylindrical rock sculptures created
by whirling water have formed a series of dark pools which contrast artfully
with the streaked white and yellow lichen covered rocks. Following the road and
the Treur River south, there are further viewpoints; Wonder View, God’s Window
and the Pinnacle.
The Three Rondavels are named after the Swazi Chief - Maripi’s wives. From the
lowest to the highest, they are Magabolle, Mogoladikwe and Maserote.
NB! The tour ends once we arrive in Johannesburg, we do not recommend that you
book your onward travel on this date, as it is possible that we could run late.
