Forest Falls
Forest Falls is certainly one of the prettiest waterfalls easily accessible on the Panorama Route. Please note that a permit should be obtained from the Sabie Tourist Information Centre.
Once you've enjoyed the view from the base of the waterfall, take the faint path on the right-hand side of Forest Falls (when facing the waterfall) to reach the top of the falls. The riverbed is wide, and jumping from rock to rock allows you to sit in the middle of the river and enjoy the view.
Though the pool at the base of the waterfall looks inviting and the rope swing seems endlessly fun, swimming is prohibited due to water quality issues.
