\"hike<\/a><\/p>\n

On 3 September 2016 a group of about 17 of us who are all members of the Gantouw hiking club in Somerset West went for a hike in the Jonkershoek Nature Reserve<\/a> just outside Stellenbosch. \u00c2\u00a0We took the easy route, Sosyskloof, \u00c2\u00a0which is about 7.3km. \u00c2\u00a0See the map at the bottom of this article.<\/p>\n

This route is very easy, not long and no steep climbs and scrambling over rocks and boulders. \u00c2\u00a0Depending on what scale you use, no more than a 2B, might even be a 2A.<\/p>\n

It was a nice warm summers day with a bit of wind. \u00c2\u00a0Some of the hikers did wear windbreakers and warm clothes, there was still a cold nip in the air. We could still see some of the remains of the fire that burned in the area about a year ago. Being the beginning of autumn, flowers was starting to bloom and after the rain there was streams and waterfalls that added to the beauty. Have a look at the video below to get an idea.<\/p>\n

Here are a couple of photographs to wet your appetite:\"20160903_103837\"<\/a> \"20160903_105340\"<\/a> \"20160903_121410\"<\/a><\/p>\n
