Fri 3

Barnyard Theatre

Sun 5

Bergheim hike and braai

It’s a steep ascent but there is excellent hiking on top. Perhaps a swim in a natural pool is what you’re after – we can oblige. Return to a refreshing swim and braai.

Wed 8

Segwati Ranch

A favourite. Lots of game to be seen along the way. A swim and a braai afterwards

Sun 12

Castle Gorge

Once you’ve made it to the saddle head off and explore. The rock formations will amaze you if you just use your imagination – chess pieces, dogs, seals. Relax by the pools for lunch, then head back to the car park.

Tues 14

Slide show/club eve

“Himalayan Adventure ( Tibet)” by Jill Persson

Wed 15

YOUTHFUL Kaapschehoop, 2 day backpack, hutted

This time, the hike is from coaches to the wattles! Experience the beauty in the surroundings of a small quaint gold mining town. Hike through patches of indigenous forests, plantations, deeply eroded valleys, sheer cliffs, hills and streams.

Sun 19

Fountain Gully

Once on top, great views with perhaps a swim and the view of the highest waterfall in the Magaliesberg.

Sun 19

Sun 28

Foothold hike

One of JHC’s most popular hiking venues, and with good reason. Four diversified routes take you to the escarpment from where there are a myriad of hiking trails.  After a good day of hiking, enjoy a braai with friends.
