The Klasies River Caves

About The Klasies River Caves

The Klasies River Caves are located on private property along the Tsitsikamma coast in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. While they are a designated National Heritage Site, access is strictly controlled because the caves are situated on private farmland and remain an active site for archaeological research. Restricted Entry: Visitors often report difficulty accessing the site due to the lack of public contact numbers or official gates for assistance. Scientific Exclusivity: Research teams, such as the SapienCE team from the University of Bergen, have exclusive access to the main site for excavations.
