This walk is definitely in my top 5! It was a new walk for our group but also a new trail. I have been to Nkwe before, they have a beautiful picnic area with a waterfall and natural pool. But the hiking trail is brand new.
There are 2 5km trails and a combined 10km route. We just took the most established 5km but I would love to do the other trails once they have finished them.
The walk zig zags through the farm, up the koppie, down and then up again. The first elevation is very gradual and we didnt even realise we had got to the top of the koppie until we saw the view. The second part of elevation is a little harder but still not difficult, it is in the last 1 km so is in the sun which added to it feeling tougher than it was.
You walk through different vegetation, some of it is in the open but then you walk through a covered along the river which is cooler and shaded.









That looks really lovely!
