![]() 4x4 Training Ground |
This guided 4x4 trail follows an old fire-break road which now offers a challenge to 4x4 enthusiasts. Due to the sensitive ecological nature of the terrain, guests are not permitted to drive the trail unattended and need to have previous 4x4 training to negotiate the steep up-hills and descents, mud patches, thousands of rocks and skeleton hill, a very steep, long descent. Varied and exciting stuff ! For passengers the trail offers more than just ‘hanging on’ in the 4x4. The views are spectacular and often wildlife such as duiker, mountain reedbuck, monkeys and baboons and many kinds of birds are spotted. There are stops along the way allowing guests the opportunity to walk into the old indigenous forests with crisp mountain streams. It is worth a small detour on foot to feel, hear, see and smell what these forests and mountain streams have to offer. |
