Descend from the top of the Magaliesberg on an adrenalin
packed 100 meter double pitch abseil or do a 7 and 25 meter abseil at The Shelter Rock.
The double pitch abseil from the top of the Magaliesberg provides you with an
exciting, adrenalin
filled escape from everyday life and give you the confidence to
enjoy real adventure. You will enjoy the most
exciting
abseil
experience available in the whole of the Gauteng and North
West Provinces.
Our double pitch abseil of 100 meters is only
surpassed by the abseil of 112 meters down Table Mountain.
The
7 meter and 25 meter abseils at The Shelter Rock is an ideal opportunity for those who wish to
experience the excitement of abseiling without having to walk all the way
to the cliff
face.
