To give you an idea. The cave top is very low in the sleeping area. Van dames cascades via the blue grotto. Its an easy day hike to the cave and well worth staying a night over in the cave.

Smaller the marble baths cave but does offer even more protection from the wind and rain. The cave is fenced so cannot be accessed without a guide. Marble baths cave and annex are 50m from marble baths should you choose to sleep overnight its well worth it the caves offer a level floor and good protection from the elements. Marble baths is often merely the first stop on a longer hike to lower injasuthi cave via marble baths and battle cave.

Marble baths this hike and cave stay has earned its reputation with thanks to the perfectly formed pools or baths that have been cut into the sandstone bedrock of the river found just below the cave. From injisuthi camp head past yellowwood forest for a steep 3 8 km s hike all uphill to grindstone caves continue up past the caves the views at the top of the drakensberg are stunning. 5 hour fairly strenuous.
