Hennops Hiking and Mountain Biking Trails

Pretoria

In the heart of busy Gauteng, virtually on the doorstep of both Johannesburg and Pretoria, hikers can now experience one of the few unspoiled nature areas at Hennops Hiking Trail. The Hennops hiking trail consists of 3 trails setting out from Hadeda Camp. At the beginning and end of the trails meanders along the Hennops River before veering away into the surrounding mountains. Two unique features on the trail are the river crossings – 2 suspension bridges and a cable car. There are interesting historical sites along the trail. Aspiring historians will enjoy seeing an underground cave where “Pruimpie” lived, traces of old settlements and the old dolomite mines and the ovens in which the rocks were heated to melt and extract the lime. The indigenous trees along the river, the gorges and plateau areas makes this an outstanding area for bird life.
