Spending 2 days here, The Gorge near Oribi just when I had thought that the South Coast is completed & I can't find any better I find this gem of a place. Did the 4.5km in total Zipline, 18 zips, highest is 300m above the Gorge 700m high traveling at almost 100kmh. This place is stunning untouched & unspoiled. Gods wonderful earth.

I got lost in that area once when I was on holiday in Margate, wanted to go to that swing bridge and stuff. I enjoyed the getting lost part the most the roads in that valley are absolutely EPIC, high 2nd gear and low 3rd gear corners, tight turns and lovely sweeping corners. Makes me want to drive there just see how the e46 will compare to the e36. I stoped to have smoke break at one stage, only then did notice how pale one of my passengers was. I will never forget the look on her face. :roflol:

It is pretty, pretty there as well :rollsmile:

Roads are awesome it was raining on my way wanted to give it some stick until I saw a red bumper stuck in the mountain around a bend. And I said to myself this is not the Knysna Hill climb so let me just enjoy the views :idea:

The Oribi Gorge (featured on Short left) is amazing, was down there with a couple of friends 3 years ago. One of my buddies had BYPASS SURGERY @ age 27 and HE dared us to jump off the Gorge...! exhilarating experience.

Add it to a bucket list
