Geology - An Introductory Workshop

Rocks Ain't Dead but tell many stories, if you know their language. From fiery beginnings to eons of weathering and deposition, rocks record a fascinating tale of time, pressure, deformation, and mineral wealth.

Join us for a full day geological adventure and workshop to learn how to:

• Identify rocks 🪨
• Understand basic geological principles 📚
• Explore various rock minerals 🌟
• Learn about fossilization 🦴

There will be hands-on interaction with a variety of rocks and minerals, and a short guided walk in the reserve.

This workshop will also delve into the stunning geology of the Western Cape and Great Karoo, examining various rock strata and their meanings. A delightful coffee/tea break with some delectable treats will be included! ☕🍰

Cost: R450 / person (Includes entrance fee to the reserve and hiring of the lecture hall)

Booking is essential: RSVP by Friday 11 September 2026.
