FOR THE LOVE OF CLIMBING

New to climbing? Not to worry, with friendly staff that are always willing to show the ropes (pun intended), you will be ready to face the 11-meter walls in no time! The facility offers users from beginner to advance the opportunity to learn, practice and train for either national competitions or strength building.

Looking for an exciting new way to pump up your fitness? Rock climbing offers you endless benefits, not only physically, but mentally and socially. Climbing increases strength and muscle build, it’s a more engaging form of cardio and a fantastic method to practise stretching and flexibility.

As part of the Lake Umuzi Waterfront, it’s within walking distance from Lake Umuzi Kamp Oase, Umuzi Lodge, The Merchant @ Lake Umuzi and InnGreen, offering all types of accommodation in Secunda to cater for Sports teams from all over South Africa.

Acting as an all-out adventure hub, Idwala Adventure can help you to take on the outdoors by providing guided hikes through some of South Africa’s most breath-taking landscapes as well as outdoor rock climbing excursions.
