Nice cliffs in a wild place with a reasonable walk-in.
©The lowest placed and most accessible cliffs (under 1 h walk); excellent climbing and popular.
©Within a National Park so you'll have to pay entry and respect Park rules.
©A large pointed rock two-thirds way up to the cliffs is a useful route marker. Below and right of this is a tall Baobab tree. Approach this area from the Rand, keeping the baobab on your L, aim for the marker rock, passing R of it and coming out just above it. From here a variety of pleasant paths lead to the central grassy bay ofElephant Rocks (45 min from campsite). In descent, abseiling from the clifftop is recommended though a traverse L at the top will lead to a poor path down a gully. The cliffs are split by the giant open-book Ivory Comer, whose L arete is Ivory Tower. The lowest section of cliff just R of this comer is marked by a grassy bay from where routes on the R half of the crag are easily reached. Routes L of Ivory Tower start from a terrace reached by scrambling up a gully 50m. L of grassy bay.
