The waterfall gives this western garden a strong destination point, while the planting and birdlife make the approach worthwhile. The site supports a notably rich range of habitats and is associated with nesting Verreaux’s eagles. Choose your walking distance to match the group; seeing a particular bird or using every trail is never guaranteed.
