Access issues inherited from Umgeni Valley

Road is pretty rough generally, so a vehicle with decent clearance is recommended.

As of July 2023 the first hundred metres or so before the river has now been repaired. A rear-wheel drive vehicle with decent clearance will make it. If wet a 4x4 is a better bet.

Ethic inherited from Umgeni Valley

It's a nature reserve so it needs to be treated with respect.
