1 : Waterberg Seven Sisters

The Waterberg Meander route starts here, at the most common entrance to the Waterberg plateau - the Sandrivierspoort, one of only five natural gateways into the hinterland from the south or east, the others being Bakkers Pass to the west, Tarentaalstraat in the south and the Bokpoort and Kloof Passes in the east.  Stretching to the west is the iconic view of the "Seven Sisters"‚ one of the most photographed and painted images in the Waterberg.  In reality there are many more sisters - buttresses of the Waterberg massif rising from the flat basin outside the southern escarpment.  Here the journey of exploration begins.
