GREYT-ADVENTURE HIKING TRAILS – PRICE LIST

 The Greyton Conservation Society, with the support of the Greyton Municipality, has reintroduced and marked walking paths for the not-so-fit, and hiking trails for the more energetic, in the commonage and Nature Reserve of Greyton. For both walks and trails, stout footwear is recommended. The paths are marked. They start and end at the same point, where ample parking for cars is available.
Some spectacular views can be encountered, the bird life changing from mountain habitat to riverine surroundings to the garden life of the village, and the fynbos produces magnificent flowers at all times of the year at different altitudes.
The visitor to Greyton will delight in the natural beauty of our heritage.

Starting and end point is the entrance to the Greyton Nature Reserve in upper Park Road. After passing through the gate, follow the Boesmanskloof Trail. Turn right, cross the Noupoort stream and climb up the winding path. It levels out and now you have a wonderful view of the village and the Riviersonderend mountains, with Abdolskop ahead of you and Perdekop left of it.

The trail is steep in parts and water should be carried. Take the Krige road and cross the Riviersonderend on the low-lying bridge. This is about the position where, in days gone by, a ferryman earned his living by bringing people across the river in his boat. The water flow must have been much stronger before the Theewaterskloof Dam was built and the vegetable and fruit farms were not yet established.

Start and end at the junction of lower Regent Street and Vlei Street. Walk through an opening in the fence and follow the path to a picnic place at the side of the Gobos River. Turn right onto a wooden bridge across the river. On the other side, turn left and follow the zigzag path up a steep hillside. There are excellent views from here over the village and, at the top, panoramic views of the mountains and farmland.
