Gumboots are highly recommended for this hike. But even then, your feet will still get wet. The hike follows Gura River upstream and there are many river crossings.
Reaching the waterfalls feels like summiting. It is such a long journey! The trail is “off the beaten path” with lots and lots of stinging nettle.
