Before Sabie turn south direction Ngodwana and take the R 539.
Pass the Sudwala Caves

After approx. 1 hour you will be driving through a tunnel.
3 Km after the tunnel take the exit to “ Waterval Boven” on the left side.

We advise to use our directions in town, as some route-planners (Garmin, TomTom…) might send you to a wrong address!
--Drive under the railway bridge and take the 1st bypass road to the right (Follow our large sign with reflectors)
--At the T-Junction is a STOP sign - turn right (Follow our small sign)
--Pass the Hospital (NOT the clinic!). The next entrance (400m) to the left is Acra Retreat.
