We spent a weekend in Tonquani and the other connected kloofs. "Kloof" is the colloquial term meaning "ravine" or "little gorge". It originates from Afrikaans.
This area is known for its excellent trad climbing and natural beauty.
We descended Cederbergkloof and ascended Boulderkloof and then walked across to our campsite. The next day we descended Tonquani down to Cederbergkloof and from there found our way back out. again.
Most of the two days were spent boulder hopping, wading pools, passing backpacks up/down over tricky scrambles.
The kloof system is owned by the Mountain Club of South Africa. Access is only allowed to MCSA members and permit holders. Permits can be obtained from the Johannesburg section.
