Suicide Gorge is a full-day, wet-hike. It’s one of the most adventurous things you can do. Imagine going down a beautiful Gorge featuring many waterfalls and rockpools, there are even a few rockslides. The scenery and landscapes are incredible.
It starts off with a 8km hike to get to the gorge, once at the start of the kloof, kit up and take on the 7 meter slide into the first pool. Then there’s a series of rock jumps which take you downstream, some of which are 14 meters high, the highest jump you’ll be required to do is 5-6 meters high (so no pressure). Once we complete the kloofing section, we’ll complete a loop by hiking out of the gorge and return to the starting point feeling quite exhausted. That feeling of fulfillment once its over is really special, it’s like you can’t believe what you just experienced.
It could easily take 8-9 hours to complete the route though, So if you’re fit, and are ready for the challenge, then you’re in for a beautiful day of adrenalin filled adventure.
We’ll do a briefing prior to starting the hike to ensure readiness.

This is the most amazing experience to have on your stay in Cape Town. Jody is the best company on the trail and extremely knowledgeable about the area and the routes making you feel safe as you soar through the beautiful gorge and down waterfalls. Epic views, adrenaline, adventure, what else can you ask for! Highly recommend doing this! Jody also gave me the best recommendations for my time in Cape Town. Thank you brother for the best time! Will definitely come back to see him and bring friends to join me back in Suicide Gorge!

BEST DAY EVER! Jody arranged everything perfectly. Picked me up in Muizenburg. Be sure to build up some endurance before you go but once you do this will be one of those moments in your life you will simply never forget. Thanks for this amazing day Jody!

If you ever want to commit suicide, this is the best way to do it 😉
You should be in good shape – 17km after all, and not be afraid of heights. The rest is a unique experience. Jody is the perfect mountain climber and if you ever come to Bavaria, we’ll we do the Abiertur. Thank you Jody for your warm manner.

Contacted TrailFitSA from an Instagram reel I saw of Suicide Gorge. Jody was professional from the start and we secured our place with a deposit payment. Clear instructions was sent and we met as agreed at the agreed time and place. Jody’s presence and personality made an immediate impression. His guidance and leadership was exceptional throughout the activity. Jody was hands on and guiding the strongest and weakest, the daring and the more hesitant members of the group in a way everyone felt satisfied. Everyone felt safe and secure with him as our guide. The company is well equipped in terms of technical equipment we needed for the activity. We felt we had great value for money for the amazing memory and bucket list experience TrailFitSA made possible for us. Jody and his company is a clear choice for your customized Western Cape nature/adrenalin experience.

We went on the Suicide Gorge hike and it was a tough but amazing experience. Some parts of the trail were very hard, with steep sections and narrow paths. The cliff jumps were incredible, and going down the waterfall is something I will remember forever. The views were beautiful and the nature felt wild and real.
Our guide, Jody, was excellent. He motivated us and supported us when we had no energy left. Without him, we wouldn’t have been able to finish the hike.
