Adrenaline junkies will find thrills aplenty at GoVertical, a South African adventure company specialising in Jo’burg’s natural peaks and troughs. Whether climbing up mountains or abseiling down gorges, GoVertical offers excursions to the likes of Mount Kilimanjaro and the Cradle of Humankind to those looking to, er, get their rocks off. Highly recommending is ‘kloofing’ – an activity that involves making your way down a water system (complete with rapids and water- falls) without a boat. If that doesn’t get your blood pumping, we don’t know what will!
