Midweek: Why the need for
Midweek hikes
From the archive. This page keeps material from the hiking club website that once used this domain. JHB Hiking is an independent magazine; routes, access and fees may have changed, so check with the landowner or reserve before you go.
The walks are generally more laid back than the Sunday hikes and often a venue is chosen where we indulge in a snack lunch or braai. Slow and moderate groups are formed as required. These midweek hikes are highly recommended, so come and see for yourself.
Below is the abbreviated March, April, May and June 2006 programme. For details of the complete programme, kindly click on the respective month below. The coloured words are hyperlinks to further information.
