Remhoogte: Introduced into programme in 2005 (Sunday 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.
This exciting new Sunday venue was introduced in July 2005 and will be a great success with hikers.
Situated between Chicken Run and Vergenoeg, Remhoogte has a steep hike to the escarpment with wonderful views of the Magaliesberg.
Remhoogte is located near Hartbeespoort Dam on the south side of the Magaliesberg mountain.
The hike starts with a long gentle walk through the grass and trees to the bottom of the mountain; the ascent of the mountain is through a steep and picturesque kloof.
Once on top, the hiking is gentle with several kloofs to visit, including Moepel Kloof and Forest Stream Kloof; for those who would like a more demanding hike there?’s Hidden Kloof to visit.
