To reach the deep gorge of the river, he tied together a number of thong to lower himself down the rocky walls of the ravine to the spring below.The Khoe name for Riemvasmaak is "Konkaib" which fell into disuse when the local people were forced to speak Afrikaans in preference to their own language.

The Kalahari Desert is a large to semi-arid sandy area in Southern Africa extending 900 per square kilometer (362,500 sq. mi.), covering much of Botswana and parts of Namibia and South Africa, as semi-desert, with huge tracts of excellent grazing after good rains. The Kalahari Desert is the southern part of Africa, and the geography is a portion of desert and a plateau. The Kalahari supports some animals and plants because most of it is not true desert. There are small amounts of rainfall and the summer temperature is very high. It usually receives 3-7 1/2 inches of rain per year. The surrounding Kalahari Basin covers over 2.5 million per square kilometer extending further into Botswana, Namibia and South Africa, and encroaching into parts of Angola, Zambia and Zimbabwe. The only permanent river, the Okavango, flows into a delta in the North West, forming marshes that are rich in wildlife. Ancient dry riverbeds - called pools of water during the rainy season. Previously havens for wild animals from elephant to giraffe, and for predators such as lion and cheetah, the riverbeds are now mostly grazing spots, though leopard or cheetah can still be found.

KAKAMAS DAY TOUR - R 395 PER PERSON
Kakamas became a proper settlement in 1898 under the auspices of the Dutch Reformed Church and soon developed into an agricultural centre. It became a municipality in 1954. Although hotly debated, the town's name originates form a Koranna word meaning "poor pasture" and "vicious, chargin ox". It was here that the Koranna were stormed by a fierce buffalo cow as they were driving their cattle through the drift. Kakamas played a role in the World War I, when South Africa joined forces with Britain against the Germans, and invaded German South West Africa from the town. Today however, Kakamas is a peaceful town graced with vineyards, cotton and lucerne fields.

The Nama people lived in the area for centuries and managed to adapt to its harsh conditions. 'Aukoerebies' is a Khoi name for 'the place of the Great Noise', referring to the Orange River, which thunders its way downwards for 60 metres in a spectacular waterfall. Such names as Moon Rock, Ararat and Echo Corner describe this picturesque and rocky region, characterized by the 18km deep abyss of the Orange River Gorge and craggy outcrops dominating the scrub-dotted plains. Klipspringer and Kokerboom (quiver trees) stand in stark silhouette against the African sky, silent sentinels in a strangely unique environment where only those who can adapt ultimately survive. The 28 000 hectares on both the northern and southern sides of the Orange River provide a sanctuary to a diverse species, from the very smallest succulents, birds and reptiles to Springbok and Gemsbok.
