Sandton

By Must Love Hiking

If you are rushed for time but still want to get a good workout in before enjoying your Sunday, this hiking trail is the perfect place to do just that. This well kept gem can be found just over 30 minutes drive from Johannesburg South to Paulshof, Sandton and there is no entrance fee.

There is only one trail which is very short but you can repeat it by reversing the trail. That way you will no doubt get a very good 4km workout done in less than 2 hours. We of course always pause for a photo, a view and a snack.

For me, hiking is not about the pace but always about the experience in nature, the attention to detail on the trail and pausing to embrace the view.

This trail was quite rocky despite that it was not difficult at all so your footwear is important. This will ensure that your ankles and knees are well guarded.

I struggle with collapsed arches and flat feet. My Merrell footwear has proven to be very comfortable and secure on the hikes that I have done.
