Lower Umgeni Falls, Natal Province, South Africa, 1882 (c)

Photograph, 1882 (c).

The Umgeni River rises in what is now the province of KwaZulu-Natal and flows into the Indian Ocean at Durban. Much of the gorge below the picturesque Howick Falls is now a nature reserve, particularly rich in bird species.
