Kaaimansrivier

Kaaimans River, located in the Western Cape of South Africa near Wilderness, is a river that flows from the Outeniqua Mountains to the Indian Ocean. Visitors can hike along the surrounding gorge, enjoy scenic views, and take part in activities such as kayaking on sections of the river. The river was historically known as the Keerom River, meaning “turnabout river”, due to the difficulty early travellers faced when crossing it, and its current name is linked to the monitor lizards that were once commonly found in the area, reflecting its natural and historical significance.
