From the
plateau you come along a beautiful view point. There you can
relax and after 15 minutes you come across a road that branches
off: left Leoval and right the Ireneval. The walk to the falls
can be challenging because it is a lot of climbing, but the
effort is nevertheless worth it. During your visit on Brownsberg
also visit the Mazaronival, Kumbuval and the Witikreek.
