VAN LIFE and HIKING / 22 Waterfalls Campsite and Hike

We are Michael and acacia , living and traveling full time in our self converted van yeti. Uncovering hidden gems and places to visit hoping to inspire you to get outdoors and travel local. This week we visit 22 waterfalls just outside porterville. 22 waterfalls is an epic campsite only 160 km from Cape Town. This is the ideal spot for outdoorsy people who enjoy spending time in nature. After a short gravel road you’ll find this campsite located on a farm along a stream. There are loads of campsites that all run along the stream tucked under the treetops alongside. After setting up camp we lit a fire and enjoyed the last bits of sunlight sneaking through the trees. Waking up the next morning and taking it slow we decided to make breakfast on the fire with our friends from awesome road trip. Erin treated us to her home made sourdough and we made yummy cheese & spinach jaffels. Once our bodies were fueld up we decided to take a mid morning hike. This hike is the whole reason we came back to this campsite. Incase you missed that video well link it above. The farm took its name from this hike as you follow the river upstream taking you past 22 waterfalls ! Yes you heard that correct. Not even a 5km in and out hike but don’t be fooled by the elevation! Since you see 22 waterfalls along the way , it means you go from the bottom of the one you looking at to the top of it which is the bottom of the next. Some are larger than others but each spectacular to see as they change. This hike can be considered a climb, there are very steep parts which wouldn’t be for you if your afraid of heights. With some ladders to help as you ultimately scale the gorge. If you are fit , don’t mind a scramble and enjoy waterfalls this is a must! This hike took us around 5 hours so we would recommend packing some snacks and water to keep you going. Since you hike up along the river you are under the shade of trees for whole way. Back at camp we cooked up some lunch and relaxed alongside the river. Very peaceful campsite with the sound of water running through and birds in the trees. Join us next week for more videos just like this !
