Last week I was in Nelspruit with Amy Jane and my family (the boys joined us on Friday). It was an amazing week. I didn't get as much work done as I would have liked but I did a lot of other things. We did a lot of adventuring. There are sandstone caves that are a local secret. I needed to see them. I didn't realise you had to climb down an extremely steep rock face. I freaked out a bit going down but then I realised I would have to go back up. I'm quite seriously scared of heights. The caves were magical and totally worth it but it wasn't an experience I would repeat soon (but I will go back). But I did it. This was a huge NSV for me. I'm suffering today because my muscles are screaming at me but it was one of the best days of my entire life. It doesn't look steep in the pic but it was scary to someone with short legs and no muscles. 🙊😅 #kaapsehoop #kaapschehoop #sandstonecaves #adventure #life #love #nelspruit #weightlossjourney #strongsmartcapableworthy #weightlosstransformation #nsv #ketolife #diabeticlife #extremeweightloss #bouldering #fun
Kaapsehoop's escarpment walking trail
Kaapsehoop is definitely our favourite place to visit on the weekend. It's 33 kilometers outside Mbombela - Mpumalanga province. The area is rich in history and nature.
There are a number of hiking trail in the area, but our favourite thing to do is hiking through the escarpment.
It's a 20-minute walk through the sandstone rock formation and grassland-like landscape.
The hike is pleasant and easy, anyone can do it. Through the maze of rocks and grasslands, there are indigenous plants and flowers adding to the lush untapped natural environment.
At the edge of the escarpment - there's a stunning view overlooking the Barberton Valley and dropping at least 1000 meters.
It's a secret spot to catch the amazing Lowveld sunset or sunrise over the mountains.
Remember to always take the scenic route!

Initially I had planned for Kaapschehoop to be a day trip from Watervalboven, but this does not allow enough time to enjoy everything this tiny town has to offer. Am I laughing? No, look at my face, I’m being absolutely serious. First-off there is a highly recommended “pannekoek huis” in residence… *Side note – pannekoek and pancakes as they are known all over the English speaking world, are miles apart! Pancakes are thick, fluffy cake-like stacks of syrupy indulgence. Pannekoek is much more creamy, crispy; less like bread and more like smooth, golden-brown mouthfuls of buttermilk & lemon. At once perfect with a spicy chicken curry filling, or dark chocolate and strawberries. Therefore the “best pannekoek huis in the area” (as Koek ‘n Pan restaurant is described) is truly a reason to smack your lips with warm anticipation!

Later, when you can support the weight of your belly again ;) you really should be off. However good a time you have over memorable breakfast / lunch, you can hardly spend all day dallying at a restaurant, and besides I’ll need to get off my behind and walk off the extra pannekoek (or two) that pushed me into that ‘uncomfortably stuffed’ direction. Kaapschehoop is home to South Africa’s only wild horse herds, though they’ve gotten less international attention than their counterparts in the Namib desert [1]. They were not always here! They were left here after the gold rush petered out, the Boer war left many ownerless, and cattle ranchers left for greener pastures [2].

There are tens, nay fifties (haha… nay, neigh…) of kilometers of trails from which to enjoy the natural scenery, wild horses and rare blue swallows [3]. Most trails are meant to be done over 2 – 5 days, with self-catering huts along the way. Sadly I didn’t get to do any multi-day hikes while traveling around the U.S., so this is my chance! I will opt out of day hikes and commit to 3 days on the trail. :)
