A few km from the Blyde River Canyon viewpoint is the viewpoint for 3 Rondavels. It is named like this because of the 3 peaks looking like 3 rondavels. The scenery and view from here over the canyon is breathtaking. Even better than from the official viewpoint. Entrance to both the canyon and the 3 rondavels is free.

Forest Falls, A Nice Relaxing Falls Near Graskop

Forest Falls

Forest Falls is not as impressive as some of the other surrounding falls, but the walk to the falls is nice. It is also free. They are certainly better than Macmac falls, which is a tourist trap further down the road. Andre, the owner at the Green Castle, says that a leopard comes to drink here at the pool below the falls every morning.

The falls are located on the east side of R532 on route to Sabie about 12 km from Graskop.

About 50km from Graskop on the Orighstad road you will find a view point to the Blyde River Canyon. Beautiful view especially on a clear day
