This area lies in a hidden gully parallel to the main gully but closer to the Snake Charmer area.
You need a permit to climb at Truitjies Kraal, permits are obtainable from the Kromrivier office. Wildcard cardholders can get the permits for free.
The central parking follows a well-marked path that runs parallel to the road and keeps some smaller crags on your left. Follow the cairns to the right, up and onto some rock slabs. Scramble up and over boulders to access the hidden gully. The routes are on the left wall.
Ross Suter and Malcolm Gowans were the first to climb in this area in 1998. In 2002 Patrick McCann and Mike Scott added several quality trad routes. Sport climbing only began when Malcolm Gowans and Cormac Tooze then put up the first sport routes in 2011. Since then the number of Sport routes has grown substantially.
