Overview – Augrabies falls national park

Augrabies Falls National Park centers on a dramatic gorge carved by the Orange River with powerful falls that surge during seasonal flows. Here is why visitors come: the park offers sweeping views into deep orange-tinged gorges, accessible viewpoints, and short hikes along the rim. Let’s break it down. The landscape includes arid vegetation and rocky outcrops that host adapted wildlife and raptors. The river contrasts the dry surrounding terrain and attracts concentrated wildlife at water points. Next steps: plan for strong sun and temperature swings, and include sunset viewpoints for the best colors.
