Jonkershoek Western Loop Trail Run

Our trail grading: ORANGE 4B

Distance: 12.5km
Extremeness: Tough climb & technical single track
Location: Jonkershoek, Stellenbosch, South Africa
Joggers: Deryck Nel & me

Saturday morning we went for an awesome extreme jog in Jonkers. We took it easy and started with 3km on the standard Jonkers 10km jeep track. We then went up towards Swartboskloof, but took the contour single track towards Sosyskloof and the fire hut. Our standard downhill single tracks were destroyed by the fire, so we were forced to take the jeep tracks back to the gate. This route never fails to impress!
