The Falls: As the Orange River approaches Augrabies Falls it divides itself into numerous channels before cascading down the 56 meter high waterfall.
Moon Rock: A massive exfoliation dome or “whaleback” which is a prominent landmark of Augrabies Falls. Walking to the summit will give you some of the best views of the park and its surroundings.
Swart Rante: These foreboding black hills are another distinct landmark in Augrabies Oranjekom & Ararat: These viewpoints give visitors the best opportunity to observe the massive gorge area as well as the wildlife that inhabits it.
Echo Corner: The furthest view point from the Rest Camp – the road to Echo Corner takes you through some of the park’s most stunning scenery. As the name implies, a long-lasting echo can be produced.
