Views of steep Pinnacle Rock in the middle of a green gorge

Panorama Route, South Africa

Experience the steeply towering Pinnacle Rock – a natural monument between a green gorge, waterfalls and dense vegetation.

What you can experience here

Just a few minutes from Graskop, a narrow rock pinnacle rises almost surreally from the green depths of the gorge: Pinnacle Rock. The rock is surrounded by dense vegetation, small waterfalls and the quietly flowing Ngwaritsane River.

A short path leads from the car park to several viewpoints. Depending on where you stand, the quartzite rock, around 30 metres high, appears either as a striking pillar in the middle of dense forest or as a contrast to the vastness of the valley. In the humid climate, mosses and ferns thrive, and the constant mist from the waterfalls bathes the scene in a mysterious light.

You can easily include a visit in any route along the R534. Entrance is inexpensive and payable on site. A short but rewarding stop to take photos and enjoy the views.
