| Here, the Mgeni River plunges 94m over sheer dolerite cliffs into a narrow gorge as it makes its way downstream to the Albert Falls Dam. Howick Falls, together with 32ha of land around it, was proclaimed a national monument in 1951. A viewing platform provides fine views over the falls, but the more adventurous can set off on the Gorge Walk, a two hour hike to the pools at the base of the falls and back. In addition to the Howick Falls, there are four other waterfalls in and around Howick. |
