Duiwelsbos Waterfall
Hiking area
👍 A classic waterfall trek the effort is rewarded with a beautiful pool and better than average falls. However this walk is not for the faint of heart it should not even be considered for anyone without excellent balance and leg strength it is a difficult hike not a walk. Be warned.

Swellendam Caravan Park
Campground
👍 We stayed here in a tent for four nights. We enjoyed it. The park is not geared towards entertaining guests. It's a safe place to sleep.
The ablutions are fine, although the ladies' bathroom lights don't work properly.
We opted for a campsite with electricity. The difference in price is nominal....
