Helderberg Five Trail Run

Our trail grading: YELLOW 1A

Distance: 5km

Extremeness: Uphill & winter heat
Location: Helderberg, Somerset West, South Africa

Joggers: Only me

Today I went for a short & easy jog in preparation for the Lourensford run tomorrow. I started close to the gate and jogged to the bottom edge of the reserve. From here on it was an easy but long climb of just over 1km. I then followed the regular Yellow hiking route and ended with some splendid single track and the wooden pathways of the reserve.

At the top of the long climb... Hangklip in the distance
