Protea Ridge

Mbaxene Falls / Cascades and Khotso Home Route

Walk from Protea Ridge down hill all the way to sea level along the sharply descending Mbaxene River. There are several large waterfalls and too many swimming spots to mention. Picnic under the shade of an Umjomi Tree where this incredible small rocky and “stepped” river reach the Ocean. Once the heat of the day has passed, walk home again. Alternatively, keep going and turn on the goat path at the little “mouth” and walk the few KM along the coast along the beautiful ledges back to Msikaba. It’s a few KM north using the distant hill with the Msikaba Lighthouse as a landmark. Cross Mfuleni we Mamba (Mamba River) at Brownlees Bay and you’re nearly back. Catch the Protea Ridge shuttle back in time for Sundowners and a snack before a beautiful hot shower and another mind-blowing supper! You day has been full!
