No special access issues
CapeNature Areas (Public land). Daily R60, weekly R200 and monthly R750 permits for climbing. Permits can be bought online through quicket.co.za. The permits are not limited so they will not run out.
You approach Fields of Joy parking as you were going to Plateau. As of 2024 parking is ONLY at the campground parking place. Do NOT use the old parking spots anymore.
From the parking, the approach is little bit over 750 meters and should take between 25-35mins. The path is well cairned and it has been updated (in 2018) to be more easily followed.
When you come up, the first boulder you'll encounter will be The Kiesl boulder,
