Spread across the lower slopes of the foothills of the Magaliesberg, this large game farm also offers game hunting and 4x4 trails. The full 12km hike is occasionally closed in hunting season, if it is closed you will only manage a 6km loop. The trail starts by meandering through farmland (look out for the albino wildebeest) before making a steep incline up a winding rocky path quickly revealing sweeping views. At the top there is a small dam (dubbed 'Camp's Bay') with a rope swing if you fancy a dip in summer. After looping round the mountain end your trip with a cold drink or a craft beer at the cafe-restaurant near the entrance. There are also braai stands and picnic tables.
This is one of the few hiking trails that allows you to bring dogs (they must be on a lead).
