The Sparkling Health Spa at The Sparkling Waters Hotel has done it again...
We are celebrating - for the 2nd time in 3 years the Sparkling Health Spa at Sparkling
Waters Hotel has been voted as one of the TOP 20 Spas in South Africa in a client survey that
was conducted by the Health Spas Guide SA. This is an incredible achievement as there
were over 200 participating spas.
The Canopy Tour
Situated at the Sparkling Waters Hotel and Spa (which
is a mere 1,5 hours drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria) is the Magaliesberg
Canopy Tour. The Magaliesberg Canopy Tour was the third canopy tour to be constructed under the
Canopy Tours SA® banner. Great news is that by the end of 2009 there will be a total of 6 Canopy Tours in Southern Africa with more
in the planning for 2010 and beyond. Canopy Tours are the fastest growing and most talked about adventure activities on the
continent.
Introduction
The MAGALIESBERG CANOPY TOUR is a unique eco-adventure
that takes clients on a 2,5 hour tour down the spectacular Ysterhout Kloof,
set in the ancient Magaliesberg Mountains. Eleven platforms have been
built against the cliffs and rock faces of the kloof and are joined by
long steel cables that clients slide along to reach the next platform.
Much like a "foefie" slide, the canopy tour essentially involves zigzagging
down the kloof while stopping at each platform to admire the expansive
views and surrounding ecology. Two trained canopy guides assure the safety
of each participant while describing interesting facts about the indigenous
plants, bird life, ecology and geology of the area.
