Areena Riverside Resort offers abseiling activities near Kwelera, Wild Coast.

A great way to take in the gorgeous surrounds of the Areena Riverside Resort near East London. Harnessed in and under the careful guidance of qualified guides you can lean back over the edge and descend cliffs that loom over the tranquil waters of the Kwelera River estuary.

Abseiling used to be an activity only used by an elite few adventurers and madmen mainly in the sphere of mountaineering. The climber Joe Simpson’s riveting book “touching the void” recounts the unbelievable story of surviving an abseiling accident. Now everyone can experience the heart stopping moment of stepping backwards over a precipice in a safe and controlled way that is fun for the whole family. 

Abseiling is just one of the many wild and wonderful adventure activities to be enjoyed at Areena Riverside Resort and both day visitors and residents are welcome to join in the fun.
