Geocache Description:

The amazing Rock of Execution in Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary where witches used to be executed by throwing them off the cliff.

This cache was originally created by our good friend and fellow cacher "Hosta" (Stan Hoffman) who sadly died in February 2011. The original listing was GC13E3J Execution Rock which we were first to find on 30th June 2007.

This re-listing is dedicated to Stan, his casual way of life, eternally optimistic attitude, and love of the outdoors. RIP dear friend.

You'll need to pay a nominal conservation fee to enter Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary. There are several caches in the reserve, so you can make a day or weekend outing of it, and enjoy some caching while exploring the reserve. More info about Mlilwane can be found here

There are various ways to reach this cache. You can hike from the main camp which will take several hours and is quite tiring, or take a guided horse trail to the Rock of Execution, or drive (4x4 or high-clearance 2x4) to the nearby picnic spot and walk the last kilometre to the summit.

The cache is hidden on the cliff side of the obvious pile of rocks. You need to (carefully) work your way around the right of the rocks onto the ledge between the rocks and the cliff, then the location will be obvious.
