Kaaiman's River, Garden Route
The Kaaimans River, also known as Keerom River, is a River in the Western Cape, South Africa. The mouth of the River lies near Wilderness. Further upriver, the Kaaimans River Gorge is an ideal place for hiking and whitewater kayaking. The nearest large Towns are Mossel Bay and George.

It was also nicknamed "Keeromrivier" (Turnabout River) because, faced with the raging waters, some travellers had to turn and try to find another way to reach their destination. Finally this obstacle was overcome when the Seven Passes Road was built by Thomas Charles John Bain.
The steam-train between George and Knysna, called the: ''Outeniqua Choo-Tjoe'' and used too cross this Bridge several times a day.
