Waenhuiskrans Cave in Arniston

Have you been to Waenhuiskrans Cave in Arniston?

The massive Waenhuiskrans Cave in Arniston isn’t just a breathtaking natural wonder, it’s part of the town’s very name! Originally called Holkrantz, it was later named Waenhuiskrans, meaning “wagon house cliff,” after the legend that it was so big, an ox wagon with its span of oxen could turn around inside!
