The great grey colossus of the massive Voortrekker Monument can be seen from all directions as you approach Pretoria. Built in honor of the Voortrekkers (Pioneers), who left the Cape Colony in their thousands between 1835 and 1854.

This 360 degree photo (Roof of Voortrekker Monument) was taken on the north east side of the roof, 60 meters above the ground. The photographic equipment used to capture the 360 degree image was mounted on our new 4.5 meter high pole (more on this new elevated pole in a future article).

This one is not for you if you have fear of heights! This 80 meter long suspension bridge over the magnificent Oribi Gorge, is over 70 meters high! As you cross over the bridge, while it sways back and forth, one can’t but help looking down through the wire mesh floor to the tree tops far below. Nail biting stuff!
Pictured below is the safety of the “other side” of the bridge, know as the Eagles Nest, where yet another magnificent panoramic view awaits. A steel structure perch (it is the Eagles Nest after all) juts out into space, high above the tree tops of the Oribi Gorge below. Sounds of the wildlife echo through the gorge below, monkeys chatter, and a fish eagle flies by (below you!). A must visit!
