Route Plan

Like many other 4x4 trails, this route originated when Jannie started making roads to reach the outskirts and the highest point on the farm. Friends and family were soon trying out the route and the unanimous view was that it had all the makings of a 4x4 trail and could cater for most off-road vehicles on the market.

The 18km trail starts at the Main Guest House from where it winds through typical renosterveld, descending through some ditches and climbing over several small inclines.

This section is somewhat technical with some low-range climbing along a well maintained track and reaching the summit at 1400m above sea level.

Jannie recently completed a year long dream - the newly built God's Window enclosed shelter awaits you at the top! With sufficient parking for up to 25 vehicles, this is the perfect venue for a well earned stop. You will be able to enjoy a magnificent 360° view from within this shelter, whilst surrounded by the luxury of a built-in working surface, sufficient seating and a cosy central fireplace.

From here the road descends down the mountain to complete the circular route. Two very steep declines await you on this section of the trail! It might seem dangerous, but the front tyres slip only a "few centimetres" on the rocky steps, before gripping the rock again. If you have some nervous passengers on board, consider taking the alternate route!
