Abseiling In Mpumalanga

browse (1 / 3)

There’s only one word to describe your next visit to the province of Mpumalanga: vertical. If staying vertical’s for you, then why not try your hand at some abseiling on your next vacation? All ittakes is four simple steps: ascend on one of Mpumalanga’s various mountain peaks, assemble the rope, fit yourself with a rock climbing harness and then start climbing down.

But you don’t have to worry about taking the plunge alone. There will be a trained guide with you at all times, ensuring that your descent is controlled and safe. Another great thing about abseiling is that you don’t need to use all of your strength and energy to do it. Master easy techniques with the help of your guide and conquer the peaks of Mpumalanga. Before starting out, make sure that you are dressed appropriately with closed shoes and a cap to wear beneath your rock climbing helmet. After that, it’s all engines go!

Another perk about abseiling in this region is being in such close proximity to the Kruger National Park. So while you’re climbing down, you just might be able to catch a glimpse of a member of the Big 5. If you have courage and the know-how, then abseiling is for you. All you have to do is hike up an easy trail to the top. And then it’s tickets all the way to the bottom for your touch-down. So be sure to pack in a bottle of Mountain Dew for mountaineering like you’ve never experienced before.
