Explored part of the Cape Epic bike trail above the Elgin Valley resulting in a surprisingly enjoyable hike on New Years Day. Perfect for a family outing.

Groot Wellington

Dec 27, 2017 | Cape Winelands, Limietberg, MCSA hike, Off Trail Hike, Wilderness Camping

Good way to end 2017 by climbing Groot Wellington from the MCSA property on the Slanghoek Saddle. Beautiful range of flowers in bloom.

Assegaaiboskloof Trail

Dec 14, 2017 | Cape Winelands, Franschhoek Conservation Area, Wilderness Camping

Bivouac trip up to Berg Valley to hike up to the Jonkershoek Watershed. Tough day 19km with about 1,700m of total ascent. Last part of trail up to the pass very tough going as the path was overgrown, and prickly! However, an ambition achieved and a very satisfying day.
