Masekane | Sunridge | Gqeberha Port Elizabeth

There has been rock climbing at Masekane, in the Baakens Valley near Sunridge, for generations. Rob Mac Geoghegan has used this crag to train abseiling, climbing & technical rescue rope work. More people have climbed at Masekane than at any other crag in the Eastern Cape, crazy, isn't it!

Sandstone quartzite. 20 short bolted routes, 4 short trad routes and a little bit of easy bouldering. There is truly limited potential for more routes.
