Verlorenkloof Youth Development Project
The Verlorenkloof Youth Development Project was founded over a decade ago in 2011. The goal of the project is to educate and upskill the local youth from the surrounding communities in the sport of fly fishing and the importance of conservation of the environment. The programme enhances the possibility of the students finding a career path in the fly fishing industry as a local guide.
