Arangieskop 2014
Arangieskop is one of the lesser known hikes in the Western Cape and maybe this is as it should be.

Groot Winterhoek 2014
In April 2014 we hiked for 3 days in the Groot Winterhoek. Despite a lot of discussion about the weather and some tentative forecasts we started from Veepos somewhat later than planned.

Postberg 2013
This hike from a weather point of view had it all. Sun and torrential rain! But what a nice hike. We hiked in separate groups as one of our scouts was doing his FIrst Class hike. The start point is at the entrance gate to Postberg itself and you start off across the flat plain, …
