Add Abseiling to Your Adventure Activity List at Robberg This Summer
CapeNature has partnered with Adventure Zone to introduce an exciting new way to enjoy the views from Robberg in Plettenberg Bay: abseiling the cliffs of the iconic nature reserve and World Heritage Site.
Robberg Nature Reserve in Plettenberg Bay is best known for panoramic views across the bay to the Tsitsikamma Mountains and open ocean with dramatic cliffs, caves, stretches of sandy beach, and the vibrant colony of Cape fur seals. It is a popular destination for nature lovers, hikers and trail runners with sightings of whales, seals and dolphins. To add to its already-plentiful attractions, CapeNature – custodian of the nature reserve – has partnered with South African adventure company Adventure Zone to bring an all-new dimension to Robberg: an extremely thrilling and breath-taking abseil down the cliffs of Robberg.
Abseiling, or rappelling as it is called by many mountaineers, is sliding down a rope under controlled conditions with an opportunity to pause and immerse yourself in the surroundings as you descend. The term comes from the German word “abseilen” which translates as “top rope down.”
CapeNature CEO Dr Razeena Omar says “Partnering with Adventure Zone forms part of the CapeNature strategy to collaborate with the private sector to drive economic growth and job opportunities. Robberg Nature Reserve is well loved by local and international tourists alike and this abseiling activity is a wonderful addition for the summer season, as we see the Western Cape fast track recovery after a two-year stint of uncertainty of lockdowns and restrictions. We encourage all visiting the must-see coastal gem of Plettenberg Bay to explore the reserve and support this proudly home-grown business.”
This is Adventure Zone’s third and newest site in South Africa and they are very excited about this latest adventure offering: “This is an activity not to be missed and should be your next bucket list activity. Our highly trained and qualified guides will make sure you not only enjoy your activity but feel safe and secure at all times. We can’t wait to meet you and provide you with a world-class abseil,” says Carien Davel of Adventure Zone. “You can’t visit Robberg without experiencing it from all angles, we give you the opportunity to do just that.”
The 35m abseil will offer breath-taking views across Robberg providing never-before-seen angles of the iconic peninsula. Additionally, Robberg, home to Nelson Bay Cave and part of the Cradle of Human Culture Route, provides a fascinating insight into the past with rocks dating back 120 million years with evidence of Middle and Later Stone Age inhabitation found along the peninsula. The abseil will provide a unique look at these ancient rock formations.
