How to find the site: Proceed up the UMhlwazini River from Solar Cliffs. Pass the confluence with the Didima River and continue up the sometimes-overgrown trail along the UMhlwazini River. Continue up the UMhlwazini for about 3 km's, passing two main tributaries on the south side. At the third main tributary on the S side go up this tributary (passing sites 68 and 67) approx 800m from the UMhlawazini and where the terrain flattens out. Then go in a SW direction for about 1km to a prominate area of trees and a waterfall. The shelter is below this waterfall.
