The place has alot of insects. Myb it was due to the heat on the 25th of Sept 2021.The views are amazing. I could not get enough.If you go for the day only, please go early to avoid the heat. The mask helped for the miggies not to go into my nose.

Beautiful SceneryPlenty of Miggies - Before walking to the falls go to shop and buy yourself a Facial Net.Spray some Tabart on arms and legs, if not coveredThe Dassies on the walk to Falls and at Reception was lovely to seeThe Park is Over Priced for Facilities offeredThink for the amount of Campers they need more Amblution Facilities

WoW.... absolutely Awesome....Ive been here twice now and still what a sight to behold.....the Orange River was in full flow...we enjoyed the Sunrise and it comes highly recommended....the rolling water is absolutely amazing and Im get appreciation for the power of the water. It different much seen..stop here next time and do breakfast the facilities is well maintained.

One of my favorite childhood destinations. Please note! There will be muggies! Make peace with it beforehand, so you can enjoy the majestic waterfall roaring with immense power and so much beauty.Day trips are available, but if you want to witness the personality of the waterfall during different times of the day.. Early morning VS sunset, I do recommend staying in one of the lovely chalets. Road trips through the national park is also available. There is also a quaint visitors shop, stocking everything from clothing to food and liquor options. The restaurant caters for more meaty meals and not very vegetarian friendly.All n all an amazing destination that connects you to mother earth, like only Augrabies can. Fall in love again.. Visit these roaring waters.

What a wonderful, breathtaking experience. The best time to visit is after it has rained. The atmosphere is wonderful. The best waterfalls weve been to.

Awesome falls. Great camping site and chalets. Nice place to visit but only for 2 nights- otherwise you will run out of things to do! Unless you are doing a hike!

Lovely placeBeautiful sceneryJust a lot of miggies

The Gorge Cottage is great. Go during mid-week and not in school holidays. The views are amazing, and the small animals that come to visit are delightful.

Absolutely stunning place and a must visit...if you are planning to stay in the area or when you are planning a roadtrip close by.We were there early in the morning, might have been freezing but the mesmerizing view made up for it.The little shop at the reception also has some wonderful local treasures.Next time we will definitely stay longer.

The park is neat and well attended to. There are plenty of trees at the campsite and the Waterfall lookout decks are +-300m away from camp. They have a pool, self game drives, shop, and beautiful scenery. Apart from the great noise which is quite pleasant, its peaceful and serene

Simply beautiful, well maintained, friendly staff, amazing experience!!It is a bit of a drive, but cheap entrance fee, there are chalets as well (I didnt go inside thougj), but it looks great from outside. If its peace and quiet you want, you must visit!!

Good service, accommodation clean and neat, good management of the Park.

Great getaway for the entire family, beautiful scenery and well maintained facilities. One can see that they are working hard at coming back after COVID and will definitely succeed!Definitely worth the drive and the surrounding area have a lot to see.

The place of Great Noise did not disappoint. It was amazing to see the falls. The pathways are nicely laid out and easy to walk even for the not so fit. Overall everything is very well maintained. I would next time sleep over one night here as this was sort of a stop on our way elsewhere.

First time, beautiful sceneryWater levels were quite low but scenery was still beautiful 😍

Beautiful to see the waterfall, but that is all.not sure if it is because of Covid. There could be more for tourists that co.e from far. More exciting stalls pr activities

This is a breath taking park that will most certainly keep you coming back there is to much to see in a single day so try to twice.

Spectacular natural attraction - a real jewel in the desert. I highly recommend both the falls on the river as well as the nature reserve! Great place, warm & friendly staff and well maintained facilities - kudos to SanParks in this corner of the country. Go to Echo Corner, enjoy breathtaking and unexpected views along the river, and ask for the honeymoon suite to spend the night in the park (no need to be honeymooning).

We had an amazing time at Augrabies. The chalet is comfortable and well equipped with a great view of the Orange River. The waterfall is fantastic but make sure you have enough time to explore the rest of the National Park, the Gorge is well worth the visit.

My visit (February 2021) was inspired by the Augrabies falls being in flood. Driving there – it is situated 120 west of Upington, I was very impressed with the quality of the roads in the Northern Cape.Seeing the falls in flood is spectacular, but it was also an amazing experience to drive through the rest of the park that covers 820 km². The park stretches along the Orange River and the surrounding areas is very arid.The landscape is almost surrealistic.We stayed in the park and the accommodation was clean and functional – no luxuries. The staff at reception was very friendly, helpful and efficient. My only complaint was that the fridge was switched off at the wall – behind the fridge and it took us a while to figure that out.I was quite impressed with the quality of the infrastructure around the waterfall to make viewpoints and accessible walkways.

Could not fault them. Chalets are clean and have everything you could possibly need. Restaurant service & food was great and reasonably priced. Everything very well maintained and in good condition. All staff are super friendly, well trained & helpful. Well done to all!

What an amazing park. So much more to offer than just the falls. (The falls were spectacular!)

Breathtaking place... I didnt want to leave this beautiful place.

Very nice view points, place to braai for day visitors and senic roots

Great experience! Visited this beautiful place twice already and each time gets better than the last!Lovely environment to be in, staff are very friendly and helpful, making the experience even more pleasant!The little store that has probably replaced the restaurant is well equipped with refreshments and other necessities.The falls are truly magnificent, I try to make a trip whenever im in the province!

Experiencing the Augrabies falls at full capacity was wow Amazing. Tranquility, serenity and peace is what i felt. Gods world is beautiful, make a shot left it is worth it. 🤞

This national park is a long way from anywhere but it is stunning. The waterfall is huge (even in the dry winter months) and it is well maintained. I didnt see a scrap of litter anywhere. The early morning/late evening views are stunning and the winter night sky is awesome.Do get a chalet with a view (its an option on booking) if you can.The Falls are lit up for a couple of hours at night, but take a torch to get there. SANP staff are generally helpful, but those at Augrabies are really great - from reception to groundskeepers, nothing is too much trouble.

Waterfalls were not as full in Mid September. Rather check out possibility of heavy rains for this dry climate and chase the full majesty that this ICONIC Waterfall has to offer!

A very pleasant experience indeed. The staff are very friendly and helpful (unlike our experiences at the Kruger Park). The park is well maintained and laid out. The Chalet was clean, spacious and well equipped. Congratulations Augrabies National Park.

We enjoyed the visit to the falls. Every effort is made to keep visitors safe.

Stunning... Plan to walk a lot to enjoy the fullness of the experience

Absolutely spectacular! Was really awesome to see the falls filling up after expecting the rise in water after sending a week of river rafting down the Orange River.Definite must see and the SANParks facilities were great.

This is one of my favourite places to visit. A lot of people miss out on the rest of the park as they only go to the water fall. There are a lot of trails inside the park with beautiful view points along the river.

The road is long, without many a wind and turns😁. A few interesting things to talk about & to see along the way, but certainly worthwhile visiting. Well maintained and clean. Every South African should visit here atleast once.🇿🇦

Always good to see were all the water goes. If is was only 27,9 cub/sec on the 25/09/2021It brings back memories of 1976 were 8874 cub/sec went down

Although it was very busy, it was worthwhile our wait. The falls were magnificent. So glad we decided to go there. Once in a lifetime experience. Never know when is the next big flood.

The views of the waterfall were amazing. What i loved most is the service offered by the receptionists and restaurant staff. The unfortunate part was to not see animals on the game drive because of the extreme heat. Otherwise the place is amazingly beautiful.

The park is flat and the ablutions are clean and lovely hot water. Really beautiful to see the falls and sitting at our caravan we saw Genit, grey mongoose , yellow mongoose, lots of birds and of course you get the monkeys and baboons. Great park to visit.

Wonderful walk ways and look out points at the falls.Facilities were clean.The falls were quite full for this time of year! Definitely come though!

The Augrabies is just something else and we were privileged tonsee it while still flowing stronger than usual due to floods.But the Augrabies isnt just abou the falls - it is truly a semi-deser and the fauna and flora deserve their fair share of attention. I would recommend a vehicle with some ground clearance when exploring the park.The rock formations and soil colours are amazing. Take some time to go to the various lookout points along the canyon.

Very pleasant, camping sites are OK but they need to seriously address the Baboon & monkey problem

This place is beautiful and well maintained. Every South African should atleast visit there once in their lifetime. The drive. There is long, but every now and then theres something interesting to speak about.

Augrabies is for us one of the best national parks in SA! Especially with the orange river in full flood! It should be on everybodys bucket list!!

As always is the scenery beautiful and breathtaking. The walkway to the falls is easy accessible. It is not wheelchair friendly, but definitely for a elderly person okay to walk - enough rails to hold on to

Augrabies Falls National Park is maintained by San Parks and is kept really clean and well maintained. There are some places which you can roam in self-driven mode but the speed limit is 40 kmph inside the park. It will take whole day to cover the 91kilometer long circle around the park. I could only drive till the point 16 as I entered the park around afternoon and only started to go on trail around 2pm. There are a lot of water potholes where SUV is okay to go and even Sedan can go but as no information is written many people turn their cars over. You should carry on as there are 3 of them which really breaks the spirits of sedan owners but your car will be able to pass. The augrabies falls are right behind the reception area and facilities are kept really clean. The thunder of waterfalls can be heard from a distance. There are a lot of mosquitoes for which you need to buy a hat covering your face worth R66 from the store. Augrabies region has those mosquitoes biting you hard so if you plan to wear bermudas etc better wear fully covered clothes like jeans and shirt else they bite you really hard. I totally loved the region despite my whole leg covered in bites by these mosquitoes. Thanks

What a wonderful natural nature area to visit.Wonderful walking trails, lovely dirt roads to mountain biking.Peaceful, relaxing, the waterfall and the nature around the main camp one of the most beautiful sites to visit, take many pictures and go home with wonderful memories of a beautiful wonder of South Africa.Loved every moment of our stay.Will be back in the near future.Thanks 👍😊

Awesome natural beauty of South Africa. Just wish that the entrance and ticket purchasing process was quicker and friendlier. Staff just dont bother to understand that often this is a quick detour for passing travellers. No warmth, just doing their jobs.The viewing and facilities are fantastic

Wonderful and great experience. Was one great experience and the area is well taken care of and excellent condition.

One of the most exciting places to visit. Especially now with the waters of the Orange river rising! Good to witness this!

It an experience, a must see during the Feb to April period. This is proper waterfall comparing it to waterfalls I have seen in South Africa. This one is the largest.

The view of the waterfall is breathtaking. Nice scenic views. Loved it.

First time back in many decades. Well done to SANParks for upkeeping the facilities. Will certainly try and make it next time they are un flood. Accommodation and service was excellent.

Absolutely beautifulPark is well maintained and just amazing to experience. We were only there for a few hours and did not sleep there

Really well kept. The falls is magnificent and keeps to its name of place of great noise. Well constructed decks allow you to view the falls from multiple angles. The rest of the park is great too, and the game drive is very scenic, with great landscapes and the odd giraffe eating right beside your car.

Such an amazing scenery! Naturally breathtaking...refreshing and serene environment. We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend getaway. The people are friendly, rates and fees are well priced and worth it. Will definitely be checking in again soon!!! #Naturelover!

The place of great noise did not disappoint! Water rushing down the falls at 3271 cumecs is a sight to behold. The viewing sites are perfectly positioned to maximize the thrill of viewing the Augranies Falls. The Dassie Trail offers breath-taking panoramas. A must visit when the Gariep is in flood.

Love all the walkways and platforms that they have built, they make for breathtaking views of the river and waterfalls.Definitely worth it.

Augrabies Falls National Park was a lovely stay. These arid parks are for those who can really appreciate the landscape, ever-changing, with the majestic falls as a highlight. Although we could not reach the office via phone, as we were running late and thought the gates would be closed. They were so kind to carry over our reservation payment for the following day. Excellent and friendly service!! We learned, if arriving late for gate hours, which is not ideal or good park etiquette, arrangements can be made to leave keys at the gate.

Tranquility at its best👌

The whole area is kept neat and clean. The shop is well stocked, but more expensive than shops in Kakemas. However, it will not pay to drive about 60Km there and back to save a few cents.The accommodation is clean and well looked after.

We had an awesome stay, once in a lifetime experience to see the falls and share in the laughter with everyone else as we became wet within seconds . Visited 2 years ago, but this time with the falls in full force. Amazing.

So so breath takingly beautiful. Everyone should go here atleast onece.

What an epic experience to see Augrabies in flood. The breathtaking vastness and thundering sound of the falls is indescribable. We stayed in chalet 9 which had a lovely tree shade on the stoep and views of the Orange River as it falls into Augrabies. The walkways are well laid out and very safe to walk on your own including at night when the floodlights are switched on. The chalet is dated but clean and a much needed working aircon. Very thankful for a lovely swimming pool who cool off in the 38 degrees summer heat. I would recommend you take extra dish towels, cleaning sponge, shampoo, swimming towels. The braai stands are cleaned everyday. There isnt an oven and cooking utensils are limited. So best to braai. There is a shop on site with daily basics. Sadly The Quiver Tree restaurant was closed when we were there. Because of the flooding, the hiking trails were closed but we experienced an unforgettable sight of the falls in flood.

The drives through the park are stunning. Did the Dasi walk, not for beginners! and troubled the whole hike by swarms of miggies. The falls are impressive, although they were not in flood at the time...April 2021

Beautiful maintained nasional park. Try and go early in the summer as the midday heat can be unbearable to the older visitors. The falls are a feast for the eyes. Truely amazing and worth a visit

Beautiful. Restaurant fantastic. They can make more effort with the shop though. Have more local things and souvenirs available.

South african nature. One day to look at falls, drive through potholes and looking for giraffes and zebras.

Awesome fallsBeautiful area

Amazing experience! Definitely worth a visit.

Beautiful creation of God.

Neat and clean chalets .

Its a beautiful place. I love it

Amazing place to visit and the falls is just majestic

The falls were very impressive! Accommodation was comfortableRestaurant and shop not open which was disappointing as the park was busy.

Very nicely en ya lebega

I have a phobia of heights and strong running water so I live precariously through other peoples photos and experiences. Photos taken by my grandson, Ludolf or his mother, Liesl.

What a experience, the water coming through and over all that enormous boulders, big and powerful.... Makes you small to witness the beauty of Gods creation.....

So amazing tonsee the Falls in Flood. Staff where amazing in processing the entry so swiftly.

An amazing sight to behold. Should come atleast once in your lifetime to experience the wrath of that amount of water.

The park was well organised and clean at a very busy time with the Augrabies Falls being spectacular.

Amazing waterfall. Very energetic and powerful, yet calming to the mind at the same time. You are able to have a picnic with the family at this national park. There is a Cafe on site to buy snacks for your day visit, unfortunately no restaurants.

Loved it, especially after the rain.Very nice campsite.

Amaizingly friendly staff at AFNParks.... and a gift from God to see the falls grow into a promise of love and care as the water increased to a white growling mass, entangled in rainbows in the mistspray

Worth every kilometre we drove to get here.

Truly breathtaking. Ive always wanted to visit and not disappointed I finally did.

Breath taking! It is possible to see the falls in an hour or two if you dont have the time to sleep over. There is a wheelchair friendly route to one of the view points but keep in mind that the terain is still challenging.

Friendly staff, good overall co dition of the park.Very little wildlife could be found. Watchout for the babboons and monkeys. They are cunning and very clever.

Absolutely wonderful. I have not seen the Orange river like this

Great Land Mark a must see... one of south africas hidden gems

Loved it! Even in summertime there was enough water to still make for a spectacular waterfall. Friendly and professional staff.

The river was fairly low when we were there, so the waterfall wasnt that impressive. The camping site could have been better maintained. There was clearly a problem with drainage from the ablution block as the shower water did not drain properly and there was water seepage into the surrounding lawned area of the site. Not very hygienic. On the plus side, the meal we had in the restaurant was very good.

Beautifully situated chalets. Stunning walks, cycling routes and game drive routes. Breathtaking landscape

Great camping facilities. All well kept and friendly staff. Lots of good walks and game drives. Beautifully environment and scenery.

Definitely a bucket list item.

Awsum experience!

Beautiful place. Love it

Raw power of nature at its most impressive - especially when the Orange is flowing strongly - definitely a spot to put on the travel bucket list. The National Park is seemingly well run with clean and comfy chalets and a pretty campsite.

The falls are beautiful.

It is one of the places in our country, every one should vissit.Adorable

Perfect accommodation. Very dry. The falls are spectacular. Well be back after the rains.
