Catch you at Tranquilitas! 🌄
Legend has it that President Kruger’s lost gold vanished somewhere between Machadodorp and Waterval Onder… but perhaps everyone has been searching in the wrong place. 👀

Numbered carabiners are hidden around Tranquilitas – from the campsite and trails to the top of selected climbs. Find one and bring it to the prize table at 18:30 to claim your mystery treasure!

One ’biner per hunter – don’t get gold fever! 🪙

The fortune vanished. The legend lives on. Will you find it?

P.S. The Xs on the map are for decoration – not the actual hiding places!
