The Karkloof is an area little visited by tourists but inevitably rewards those that do. The Karkloof is a flat topped range that forms a barrier between the coast and the Drakensberg.
The highest point - Mount Gilboa - is almost 1800m above sea level and commands unsurpassed views of the Midlands. Most of the Karkloof is heavily wooded either with plantations or protected indigenous forest.
The Karkloof Nature Reserve is a 900ha area of yeloowwood and stinkwood in which the rare martial eagles breed.
The Karkloof Falls is a delightful spot with picnic, swimming and braai spots.
In this unlikely area, one of the firsts in aviation history was accomplished here.
Household fabricated a glider based on the form of a vulture he had killed. It was made of oiled fabric and bamboo. In 1871, fearlessly launching himself from the top of a kloof, he glided the full width of the valley - well over a kilometre - before crashing into a tree and breaking his leg.
His mother dissuaded him from any more foolish pursuits.
