This Buttress is one of the easiest access buttresses on the Apostles, and its a shame it doesn't see more climbing. the crag has a distinct break one pitch up, meaning some routes start on the lower level, while others on the upper.
There is an entrance fee to Kirstenbosch.
A permit is required to access Orange Kloof.
There are two options, but they amount to the same thing, with the first being much easier, and the second faster.
Take the Kasteel Poort path until one reaches the "Band-Stand", which is a prominent flat area which marks the paths change from walking up the west face of Kasteel Buttress to Kasteel Ravine.
Take the Valken Ravine approach but turn right for the start of Kasteel Buttress.
No bolting.
