This beat is easily accessed on the upper reaches of the Umzimkulu river towards Drakensberg Gardens Hotel. It is particularly popular as the tar road to the hotel meanders along the valley providing easy access to the river form any point. Also, during times of high rainfall it can be somewhat easier to fish than the stronger flowing lower stretches. The upstream boundary of beat starts at the Old Hatchery restaurant and ends downstream at a fence on the 4km milestone on the road.
