"Rock - it's more than a sport. It becomes a lifestyle. It runs in your blood and mirrors your mind; a kaleidoscope of little chalked-up holds stretching on forever..."

Bouldering

Bouldering, possibly one of the most natural forms of climbing involves climbing generally short, hard sections of rock fairly close to the ground, without the use of rope. Often a crash-mat is used to soften the landing. 'Spotters', or other climbers often stand behind the climber to break their fall or make sure they land on their feet.

There is a site devoted just to bouldering in South Africa. Check out:-
