Every time someone asks me about hiking, their number one question is aren't you afraid of SNAKES? To tell you the truth, I see more of these guys than snakes. I've probably seen three snakes on the trails. The first one was caught by snake lovers in #rusternburg and the other two were fleeing from us on #kzn hiking trails. This guy in the pics was chilling on a rock at #ShelterRock this Saturday. #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #hiking #rocklizard #lizard #ShelterRock #outdoors #mountains #naturelovers #hikingislife (at Shelter Rock) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMJxMffMDP1/?igshid=g9cpbl5448ht

What is Saturday without a mountain?

This Saturday I was solo hiking at Wonderboom Nature Reserve, a trail whose round trip is around 2.8KM and if you're looking for a physical challenge like me you'll have to do it three times. The trail though short has historical significance, a Voortrekker fort at the top speaks of a time when the Boer were fighting over land with the Ndebele nation. The "Wonder Tree" which is the name sake for the reserve is said to be the final resting place of a brave Ndebele chief, they took on guns and cannons with shields and spears. Visit for the challenge and the history lessons. (at Wonderboom Nature Reserve)

From Little Paris in Magalies, to Parys in the Free State. Locks on bridges follows the name Paris around. Next collection will be of locks at Paris, France. #roadtrip #lovelocks #promiselocks #togetherforever #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #mountains #outdoors (at Parys,Freestate) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJleB2gJHtY/?igshid=r6pz8g9u5d1b

Visited the suspension bridge at Parys where love is locked down. Next time I'll be looking at locks at Paris, France.

7000 feet in the sky with Luyanda in the pilot seat and my partner in travels at the back. Everything down below looks like a toy even the mountains. That's how it looked from the cockpit and unlike flying in a large passanger jet you feel each and every bump in the sky (someone needs to workout a signage system over there). Next step is to jump out of a plane at a higher altitude. #outdoors #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #mountains #flying #pilot #travel https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbHtFQpfWl/?igshid=nywvwxazxrda

The last Saturday with a mountain for 2020 had to be the #Karee trail at Rustig. A 13KM punishment for all the Xmas food I ate. See you next year when we get back to having Saturdays with mountains. #hiking #sahiking #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #bikinisandhikingboots #outdoors #mountains #roclavita (at Rustig Hiking Trails, Magaliesburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJXj9QMpyMp/?igshid=ivrfbiwmf27z

Based on what I was told when discussing #The5amClub during the hike on the weekend, I think this pic summarizes the book nicely. #bookreview #Drakensburg #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #hiking #outdoors #outsidersapparell #bikinisandhikingboots #feedyourmind https://www.instagram.com/p/CHpbZ-SJonq/?igshid=emxz9975imds

What's Saturday without a mountain? Side note: Don't be caught in between an unstoppable force (gale force winds) and an immovable object (mountain). For the first time ever I was genuinely scared on the Karee trail when strong winds we threatening to blow us right off the mountain. Bad weather aside, #Karee trail, named after a tree we really aren't interested in gave us the long overdue hiking challenge we've been craving since they let us back onto the mountains. It was cold and hard but we enjoyed it nonetheless. #beatingcovid19 #kareetrail #hikingislife #🧗‍♀️ #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #bikinisandhikingboots #mountains #outdoors #naturelovers #hiking #Rustig (at Rustig Hiking Trails, Magaliesburg) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCqG0GPpaTB/?igshid=1od51k35wnw6l

What's Saturday without a mountain Well this Saturday the mountain was a bit small. I was told that our hiking destination this time was going to be in Krugersdorp and I was reluctant cause it's not really known for having challenging mountains. In the spirit of it being a Jozi mountain trail this time the partner in crime and I also brought in Jnr. I'm the first to admit that I was pleasantly surprised when I got onto the trail, I thought the main feature was the waterfall but it pales in comparison to the Spookhuis that looks like it was taken from the pages of Stephen King and I started really enjoying the sights and views as soon as we hit Poplars Tunnel, the lack of mountainous terrain that I've gotten accustomed to was overshadowed by the beauty of the lake, the vegetation around it, the ruins that told different stories and the waterfall that is the perfect background for happy people. All in all I enjoyed Cradle Moon and will be back on a bike next time. #beatingcovid19 #whatssaturdaywithoutamountain #bikinisandhikingboots #hikingislife #hiking #caring #lovenature #mountains #lovehiking #outdoors (at Cradle Moon Lakeside Game Lodge) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCTp59mJhYh/?igshid=tkwz27pweign
