There is no pot of gold at the end of Kloppershoek Kloof.
There is however a slight conversation stopper.
The image below is the view looking back down the kloof. The route follows the kloof from the top of the image to where the photographer is standing, which is just after the 21km mark.
At the end of the kloof lies that slight conversation stopper, the legendary Mavis Bank,
Those small white dots on that low ridge in the middle of that ox-bow formed by the Kloppershoekspruit are runners about to start their run, or climb, up Mavis Bank to the photographer's position.
Not sure where they are .... there they are ...
The 4½ hour cut-off is at the top of Mavis Bank.
Next is the climb to Lesotho View. It is a climb, and there is a stunning view, clouds permitting of course!
