Geocache Description:


This cache is hidden on the Hennops Hiking Trail.

For more information go to the website (hennops.co.za).

There is an entrance fee for the hiking trail which must be paid at the start.

 

Pruimpie se Gat can be found along the zebra route in the Hennops River Picnic area. Many people walk past this cave without even realizing it is there. The entrance is a small hole, about 1m in diameter, but opens up into a large cavern below. No specialized climbing gear is required to explore this cave.

The legend says - Pruimpie was an orphan and was left behind after Mzilikazi fled to the North to escape the Zulu Impis (1837) Later in his life his best treat was to ask for chew Tabacco from his neighbors. Pruimpie lived in this cave and from there the name.

The listed coords take you to the mouth of the cave and in order to find the cache you need to enter, this is not too difficult but I would advise that this is done with someone who can help you get in and out the cave. The entrance is about 1.5 Meters high.

You will need an illumination device in order to find this cache but it will not take you long
