Groenkloof Nature Reserve

Groenkloof Nature Reserve, Pretoria Overview

5 km south of the city, the Groenkloof Nature Reserve was South Africa's first nature reserve, established in 1895 and is one of Gauteng's top game reserves. It has several hiking and mountain biking trails and great 4x4 trails for off-road car lovers. It is also a great place for bird watchers, with a huge variety of local birds frequenting the area.

As one of Pretoria's top tourist attractions, Groenkloof is a brilliant game sanctuary of Gauteng. There are 3 different hiking trails of 1.3, 3.7 and 10 km, and also a 20 km trail for mountain bikers. Kids can while their time away on the fun pony and horse rides while you take on one of these trails, and there are two picnic areas for the family to get together and relax after a fun day out. For hikers and mountain bikers who plan on taking on these trails early in the morning, you can also make bookings for overnight stays at the huts. Though it's best to make these reservations well in advance.
