The trail is well marked, taking you through the reserve's grasslands and alongside picturesque dams, namely Grebe Dam, Fish Eagle Dam, and Blue Crane Dam. There is also a bird hide along the route, where we stopped for a break, watching the birdlife that frequents the reserve. The trail is mostly flat and winds through a diverse landscape of wetlands and veld. We passed a waterfall near the end of the route, just as the Gautrain sped past not far away.
