This was my favourite experience thus far. I think it is one of the most beautiful creations that I have had the privilege to see in person. 'Augrabies' takes its name from the KhoiKhoi word 'Aukoerebis' which means 'the place of great noise' and refers to the loud crashing sound made by the water as it cascades down the rocks.

We spend 5 hours walking around and we only saw a part of it. I cannot share all the photos, but here are a few of my faves.

Also check out the videos we have loaded.

Hi Jane, they are called Rock Hyraxes, in Afrikaans “Dassies” (Plural), pronounced da-si’s or in single form da-si. They LOVE sitting in the sun. They are super cute. Go to the videos page, I’ve loaded a few of them.
