The experience

See the Highveld escarpment break above the Lowveld

The Three Rondavels rise from one of Blyde River Canyon's broadest visible bends.

From the rim, the journey can see the geological drop it will descend before entering Kruger.

Experience FAQ

Stand above Blyde River Canyon at the Three Rondavels

Q01Why choose the Three Rondavels viewpoint?

It gives one of the clearest wide views across Blyde River Canyon, its named rock formations and the Lowveld beyond.

Q02Is the viewpoint a hike?

No. It is a short viewpoint visit, best combined with a real walk elsewhere on the escarpment.

Plan with Alex

Plan the Panorama Route

Travel from Johannesburg into wildlife country, follow the warm coast toward the Cape, or let spring flowers lead you north into the Kalahari.

We begin with the part of South Africa you most want to feel, then give the country enough time to change around you.

Portrait of Alex

I want you to follow leopard tracks at dawn, swim in the warm Indian Ocean, meet artists and historians in the cities, then watch the last light turn the Kalahari dunes red. South Africa can hold all of this in one journey.
