Jonkers Western Loop Trail Run

Our trail grading: ORANGE 6A

Distance: 14km

Extremeness: Technical single track & tough climb

Location: Jonkershoek, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Joggers: Deryck Nel & me

This Saturday we started on the Eastern side of the Jonkers loop and after about 3km crossed over to connect with the Sosyskloof hiking route. The route took us into Swartboskloof from where we turned onto an awesome contour single track running through Sosyskloof and connecting to the MTB route that passed right underneath the Jonkershoek Fire Hut. We got onto the MTB contour route which ends in three stages of epic MTB downhill – perfect for extreme jogging!
