Overview: The first half is easy along the Orange Kloof Ring Road, and the second half is along a good trail. OSM map
Location: Orange Kloof
Route Description: With your permit in hand (according to the SANParks sign at Constantia Nek), follow the Orange Kloof Ring Road to a pleasant stop at the Original Disa Stream, which comes down from the De Villiers Reservoir.
Continue to follow the Ring Road around the amphitheater behind the Back Table until an HT sign (Hoerikwaggo Trail) indicates to leave the road and follow the path on the right hand side of the gorge, until you reach the Woodhead Dam wall.
Steep steps lead up on the left hand side to finish at the left side of the dam wall. Note that during winter or after heavy rains, the dam may be overflowing and create a waterfall on the top section of the path. Therefore there is a bridge down across the river bed just before the waterfall, and a bushy bypass to avoid this.
December 2024 update: It appears that the grid on this "bypass bridge" may have been displaced, leaving only two awkwardly spaced metal tracks. Proceed with caution and use at your own risk!
