Fairy Glen Falls

Fairy Glen Falls is a small waterfall tucked within Royal Natal National Park in South Africa, reached via a short trail from the main road near the Visitor Centre.

The route crosses the bridge opposite the centre, then winds through bush alongside the Broome Hill stream, crossing and re-crossing it before arriving at the falls — a walk of roughly 1. 6 km taking about 20 minutes.

The glen lives up to its whimsical name, offering a shaded, tranquil setting that makes it a popular picnic spot on hot days.

Hikers can extend the outing into a round trip of approximately 4 km (about 45 minutes) by continuing along the bridle path and looping back to the hotel or the main campground.
