Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve

By Rosalind Bennett

Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve, is a hidden gem nestled in the foothills of the Moreleta Kloof in Pretoria. We set off early from Johannesburg, enjoying a spectacular sunrise on route to this very special hiking trail.

The entrance to this trail is free, however, you are encouraged to make donations to the Friends of Moreleta Kloof Nature Reserve who keep it in pristine condition so that we can visit it and be blown away, as we always are.

We chose to do both trails as a figure 8, crossing over the river. There are a few ascents and descents which are quite moderate. There is ample tree coverage which is appreciated against the winter sun. The trail is well marked and easy to follow without getting lost.

Our Merrell footwear was so appreciated, as there are many uneven parts of the trail where you need to carefully navigate through. Our recce team all opted for the Erie Mid Leather Waterproof hiking boot, and we are so impressed by it. A hiking stick is recommended for balance and support on parts of the uneven terrain.
