Hidden in the Giba Valley alongside the N3 freeway, just outside Pinetown, lies Giba Gorge Adventure Park. Here you will find a haven for outdoor enthusiasts with something suitable for all abilities and ages. Whether it’s the kids scooting around the BMX track, the avid mountain bikers & trail runners making use of the single-track trails, the adrenalin fueled downhillers or the families and couples choosing to picnic on the lawn or relaxing in the outdoor restaurant, there is something to appeal to everyone! Giba Gorge Adventure Park has officially been around since 2007, when Chris Harburn decided to cut some trails onto a property he had purchased as Stockville Quarry. This was the humble beginnings of what has grown into Giba Gorge Adventure Park as it is today.

The Paradise Valley Nature Reserve, 100 hectares of coastal and remnant grassland, boasts one of the two national monuments to be found in Pinetown – The Umbilo Waterworks, which were built in 1887. All four of the trails in the reserve start at the Interpretive Centre and head down through the picnic area. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the waterfall and another half an hour for the return. Cross the wonderful old wooden bridge at the bottom of the picnic area and follow the blue trail markers. On the other side of the river, where the trail splits, keep left on the Waterfall trail (the trail to the right is the Duiker trail). The trail goes through some large strelitzias, better known as wild bananas.
