Access issues inherited from Hellfire

The climbing is situated in the Limietberg reserve which is managed by Cape Nature. You MUST obtain a permit to climb at this area. Book permits by contacting their office in Rondebosch Cape Town and asking for a permit for the 'Hellfire trail' in the Limietberg reserve.

Cape Nature: www.capenature.co.za

Tel: 021 659 3500.

Permits can also be obtained at the Du Kloof resort (hotel) from the curio shop, useful if you decide to go on the spur of the moment and have not pre-booked permits.

Ethic inherited from Hellfire

Alien Plants: Hakea Removal: Thin saplings can be easily pulled out by hand. Teen plants up to finger diameter can also be removed by pulling with more effort. Larger than this can be cut. Cut as close to the ground so that the plant does not regrow. A pull saw works well for this. Tip- Remove stones around the base before cutting so as not to dull your blade. Stack all the removed plants in a pile and weight it down with rocks. This helps the winged seeds to not spread. *Note: Gloves will save your hands.

Climb the right arete of the lower face. After the ledge above this arete, stay on the face of the slab above, using the right arete once again. Moving off the face of the top slab (into the corner around the arete) will take you onto 'Bonfire Arete (Alternate)'.

FA: G. Hart, 1994

Climb the lower arete as for 'Bonfire Arete'. After the first bolt above the large ledge (above the lower arete), move right of the upper arete into the corner. Climb in this corner, only moving out of it to reach the anchors.
