Starting at the Victoria Bay parking area, we move in an Easterly direction along the railway line. Passing through two tunnels until we reach a bridge, where we'll be crossing the Kaaimans River mouth. during low tide.

“Kaaimans Grotto”, in the past was a very popular restaurant only reachable via train, now a place of eccentric artwork and pilgrimage run by Clifford and friends who love to show you around. The cave itself is not supplied with electricity, but equipped with fresh water, toilet facilities, cooking facilities and a wooden deck with unbeatable views. The cave also offers accommodation for up to 14 people – for the courageous ones. Leave a small contribution behind for using their deck, it is much appreciated!

We then proceed to Leentjiesklip where the guide will share some history and tell you more about where it derived it's name. Moving further, we stop at Peron at the Wilderness station where you could obtain an optional coffee and something sweet, before we return the same way, back to Victoria Bay.
