Yellowwood Amphitheatre, the surrounding walls, and the Chess Pieces, constitute some of the best trad climbing in South Africa. It is a venue that demands the greatest respect, due to the fact that it is situated in the big and beautiful mountains in Du Toit’s Kloof, and has a very wild feel, but at the same time there are many routes for climbers looking for good adventure climbing of a moderate grade. Either way Yellowwood is a place not to be missed. There are many routes of excellent quality on hard quartzitic sandstone, from moderate to bold and hard.
