Windy Brow Game
Reserve
By Must Love Hiking
Cullinan, Pretoria
We started with a sharp incline into the Ecology trail to the top where you overlook the beautiful Cullinan area. This is where you can catch your breath before continuing on this magnificent trail. Very quickly into this trail, we spotted the Giraffes.
This venue has multiple hiking trails
It is very well marked and not easy to get lost
Merrell footwear is always a winner

Field Notes:
Our Merrell footwear is always a winner for the uneven and slippery terrain. It is a wise investment if you are planning to take hiking seriously.

The Windy Brow Game Reserve has always impressed us. It is very well marked and not easy to get lost. There are some places where you will need to pause to see which way next. The terrain is rocky and slippery in some places so care must be taken when hiking on this trail. It is a good idea to use a hiking stick for balance and assistance on the tricky parts.
During the summer months, this trail is very green but since this is winter, it was bursting with shades of winter (browns, a hint of green here and there and then of course the many protea trees that are not yet in bloom).
We found some great rest areas with rocks for seating to enjoy a snack and chat.
We were blessed to see so many animals. Giraffes, Wildebeests, Kudus and Zebras.
