A 72-year-old grandfather fell to his death in the India ravine on Table Mountain yesterday.
It’s alleged that the Port Elizabeth man was on a hiking trip with his 11-year-old grandson when the accident happened.
Wilderness search and rescue spokesperson Kevin Tromp says the man had taken the wrong footpath and went off into India ravine.
They started climbing what Tromp describes as “quite a nasty waterfall” in the ravine.
The grandfather fell about 20-metres to his death at the foot of the waterfall.
