Intro
Escape the city and join us for a beautiful 11 km social hike at Klipriviersberg Nature Reserve, one of the largest and most scenic nature reserves close to Johannesburg. With rolling hills, open grasslands, peaceful hiking trails, birdlife, and beautiful panoramic views, Klipriviersberg offers a wonderful outdoor experience surprisingly close to the city.

Our monthly hikes are not only great for fitness and health, but also a fantastic social experience where like-minded people can enjoy fresh air, conversation, nature, and an active lifestyle together. Hiking is known to support cardiovascular health, improve mental wellbeing, reduce stress, and increase overall fitness.
💡 Hiking Tip: Pack a handful of almonds, cashews or dried fruit for sustained energy on the trail. I often enjoy snacks from Grove & Seed, which offers a great selection of quality nuts and dried fruit.
This scenic Johannesburg hike is ideal for people who enjoy nature, social outdoor activities, and discovering some of Gauteng’s best hiking trails. We will not be running, but we will also not be walking slowly, so a reasonable degree of fitness will help you enjoy the hike comfortably.
After the hike, those who wish are welcome to continue the social with lunch, coffee or drinks at the Kraal Restaurant, Thaba Eco Hotel.
Whether you are an experienced hiker or simply looking for one of the best social hikes near Johannesburg, we would love you to join us. Bring a friend or come on your own.
