After our late and long drive from Addo half way back to Cape Town, we stopped at Oudtshoorn. The lady at the backpackers waited up for us till 11pm and we were pretty exhausted, when we arrived.
We decided to take this stop on our way back, because back on the first day of our trip we found a flyer of the Cango Caves! It is a huge Cave with dripstones, stalagmites and stalagtites. It was beautiful. Like the ones near Kehlheim at home, but way way bigger and so much more dripstones!
There where two tours, one could make through the caves: the normal one and the adventure one. With bungy and shark diving on our resume we chose the adventure one! And it was fun! The first 3 caves (huge!), you were only allowed to look and got the story of the caves. How they have been used many many years ago from bushman, 17something someone found the second one and some more decades later the third was found. And there are many more after that. We saw the first 3 and after those, we climbed through some of the smaller ones. Really climbed! The ways were too small to walk in, sometimes you had to lay flat on you belly like at the "postbox", or wiggle up "devil's chimney". It was fun and wonderful to experience the caves like this!
