Beacon Buttress Via Ferrata

Post by JustAverage »

Hi all,
I recently discovered old posts about this via ferrata route in the Drakensberg and I was wondering if it reopened or if it is still closed?
If it is open, are there any guides in the area that are willing to take people up?
Any and all info will be greatly appreciated!
Many thanks!
Stijn

There's a write-up about it in the latest SA Mountain mag:

It's been completed and open. I met the team doing the FA on my hike up to Tugela falls. Contact Ollie from Xtreme adventures in Clarens he might have some information about who's able to guide the route.
