About Augrabies Falls

Augrabies Falls National Park features a spectacular 56-meter waterfall on the Orange River. The park's name comes from the Khoi word meaning 'place of great noise.' The landscape is characterized by granite outcrops and unique desert vegetation, providing habitat for various wildlife species including klipspringer and black eagles.
