View from The Edge at Hogsback in the Eastern Cape

Beautiful view from the edge at The Edge in Hogsback, or not, Tony was not going beyond that gate.  Although I'm not as scared of heights as Tony is, I wasn't all that keen to go beyond this gate either - although a super zoom lens on my camera would have been great.

But, here's the view, as I took it, so hope you like!

I took this photo during a day trip to Hogsback in early 2009.

Smoking and taking a photo in Hogsback

Tony smokes a cigarette while using his mobile phone to take a photo of Madonna and Child waterfall in Hogsback in the Eastern Cape, in 2009. Read about Terry and Tony's day trip to Hogsback. Terry's two sons went on the trip too and everyone took lots of photos.
Also read about Terry and Tony deciding to stop smoking standard cigarettes, as they now smoke electronic cigarettes that they bought in East London in December 2009.

Terry and Tony at a church in Hogsback

Terry and Tony (us) visiting St Patrick on the Hill church in Hogsback. A delighful little church with stone walls in a quaint setting. Neat garden and lawn runs off into wild forest at the back. Many happy couples in the Eastern Cape area choose this little St Patrick on the Hill church in Hogsback to get married at.

Madonna and Child waterfall in Hogsback

Madonna and Child waterfall in Hogsback is delightfully refreshing! Take a dip in the cold shallow water or simply stand in it and enjoy feeling the gentle spray of the Madonna and Child falls on your face - or even stand right under the falls and take a refreshing and fun shower! The walk back up to the parking area can be a little tiring for those not very fit, so make sure to take something to drink with you too! The walk itself is lovely and refreshing too. The forests and forest walks of Hogsback are cool, green, and beautiful.

Kettlespout waterfall in Hogsback

This lovely little waterfall in Hogsback is quite high up, even though the waterfall itself is very narrow, and one can actually just hop over the little stream at the top before it (the stream) tumbles over the cliff. The path to the waterfall is safe, but for those scared of heights, it could be a little worrying. Also, there is nothing to prevent a person from slipping over the edge at the actual waterfall if a person gets too close to the edge in an effort to see more of the waterfall. Stay well away from the edge (this is possible, so don't let this little story put you off going to see Kettle Spout waterfall!)
