Augrabies Falls National Park

Augrabies combines the Orange River waterfall and a deep granite gorge with an arid Northern Cape landscape of quiver trees and bare rock.

Augrabies Falls National Park

Why go

The waterfall is the main draw, but Moon Rock and the gorge show the surrounding geology. River flow changes the falls’ appearance, so this is a landscape visit with seasonal variation. The park’s sparse vegetation is part of the experience, not an absence of scenery.

What to look for

  • The Orange River drops into a long granite gorge.
  • Quiver trees stand out against the semi-desert rock.
  • Moon Rock is a prominent granite dome.

Useful to know

  • Check current river conditions if the waterfall’s volume is central to your trip.
  • Prepare for exposed, arid terrain when moving beyond the falls viewpoint.
