What we’re about
We hike at Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve in Kibler Park, south of Johannesburg, on the first Sunday of every month.
Distance, Pace, Elevation + Duration:
You will enjoy the 15km trail if you're an experienced and fit hiker. The highest point is 1785m at the reserve, that's about how high we climb at a fast pace, twice at different hills.
It takes us about 3 and a 1/2 to 4 hours at most to finish the hike. It's exhilarating and the views from the top where we walk are amazing!!🤸🏽😃
The 11km is a moderate hike. We only climb one challenging hill at a moderate pace. If you're fit you'll enjoy the hike.
It takes us about 3 and a 1/2 hours at most to finish the hike and it's lovely 🥰.
We encourage beginners to do the 5km trail, which is flat and not too demanding physically. The pace is slow, allowing one to take in the beautiful scenery, peacefully.
Time: We meet at 06:45 and the hike starts promptly at 07:00am.
Venue: We use the entrance at 129 Peggy Vera Rd in Kibler Park.
Meeting Area: When you arrive at the main entrance (gate) you will be facing the main building with a thatch roof. Walk through it. When you get to the other side you will see tables and chairs under a tree, that's where we meet.
Fee: Free.
What to Bring:
○ At least two bottles of water🫙🧃.
○ Snacks, fruits. Hiking can make you hungry. If you eat salty food while you're hiking you become very thirsty. It's best to bring something juicy. 🍇🍌🍊🍏🍫
