De Kelders hike, 3 October.

After checking in at the Walker Bay Nature Reserve 8 hikers walked along the Plaat in the direction of Hermanus. After a break we retraced our steps and visited the caves at Duiwelsgat. We then went to the fresh water cave at De Kelders and spent our lunch time on the rocks looking at the whales. We counted 5 or 6 of them. We then hiked in the direction of Gansbaai, turning around at Stanford Cove. Total distance hiked 12 km.

Thank you Linda du Toit for leading the hike. Visit our website for the full program, new hikers always welcome.

Vlakkenberg, Saterdag 26 September.
Hein Gericke het die stap gelei deur woude , ryklik versier met pragtige silwerblaarbome. Bo- op die berg het die mistigheid die pragtige fynbos ekstra kleur gegee. Later het die mis begin wyk en kon ons pragtige uitsigte op Houtbaai, met Karbonkelberg en klein-Leeukop, asook agter-Tafelberg, waardeer. Dit was ʼn voorreg om ʼn lekker dag in die natuur, in vars berglug, saam met lekker vriende te geniet.

Saaltjie, Jonkershoek, 19 September.
8 stappers het gemaklik saam met Linda du Toit vanaf die hek met die MTO Irish roete 1 - 8 opgestap tot by die Saaltjie. Die uitsigte oor die Jonkershoek- en Banhoekvalleie was soos altyd, pragtig. Na verversings by die tafeltjie kon ons terug stap. Eers met Irish 8 en toe met die Geelhout roete terug na die hek.

Saterdag 5 Augustus het 24 van ons 'n wonderlike staproete meegemaak op Mooiplaas wynlandgoed, saam met Mariella.
Onder leiding van die eienaar, Tielman Roos, het ons 'n studie in fauna en flora van die renosterbos omgewing gekry, terwyl ons ons 'n warm, windstil dag op die plaas gestap het. Tielman is voorwaar 'n bron vol kennis en geskiedenis. Die wyn-proe het geroep teen die einde van die stap. Voorwaar 'n roete wat hoogs aanbeveel kan word.

Op 22 Augustus het 12 stappers saam met Linda du Toit die Sentrale Piek sirkel by ARC Franschhoek agter die Bergrivierdam gestap. Die bewolkte weer was perfek vir stap. Agv rotsstortings moes ons by Scherpenheuwel vir ‘n ent op ons spore terug stap - totale afstand was 15.5 km. 'n Heerlike dag saam met ou en nuwe vriende.

On Saturday 18 July 13 hikers went up to Forts Nek at ARC Franschhoek, Bergrivier dam, with Linda du Toit.
Unfortunately the route is not yet on their map and there are no signage. After crossing the Berg river we did a bit of bundu bashing to find the wooden crate from where there is a clear path up to the neck. The last bit is very eroded but the hikers who made it to the top had beautiful views over the Theewaterkloof dam and Franschhoek valley. ARC indicated that they are still working to get everything in place on this route. Distance officially 22 km.

Missing Link / Twelve Apostles Trail (Camps Bay / Llandudno)

A group of 15 tackled the scenic 13km loop on 15 August 2026. This trail does not have much shade and on a hot day the sun can hit hard, but the cool, misty weather made for perfect conditions on Saturday. Although the mist played some hide-and-seek with the views, it lifted enough to reveal the beautiful coastline. But the real star of the day was the fynbos. There are blooms everywhere along the trail, reminding us that spring is around the corner.
Thank you Louise Dudley for leading this hike. Everybody welcome to come and join our Saturday hikes in our beautiful mountains. See our web page for program and contact details www.stbvoetslaan.co.za

Maandag 10 Augustus, op vrouedag vakansiedag, het Mariella ‘n groep van 11 stappers geneem vir ‘n lui-lekker stap op die Stellenbosch bergpad. Dit was'n heerlike wintersdag met flora wat die geur van winterreën versprei het. Die uitsigte van bo was asemrowend en dit was pret om die gewilde, bekende bakens uit te wys. Altesaam 'n baie lekker uittog.

It rains on Thursday so we go hunting waterfalls in Cecilia forest. Our group of 14 happily banter along and stand in awe at the beauty. Then we visit the cork forest. Cecilia forest never disappoints.
