Salomon Hike Club Tzaneen

Magobaskloof Hike (Intermediate) - Saturday, 29th October

Distance: 9 - 10km

Elevation gain: 239m over the 10km hike

Location: Debengeni Waterfall 

Total hours: 3.5 - 4 hours

Time: 8am

Overview:

A fun mountain route that meanders through the forests and past plenty water. 

Starting at the famous Debengeni waterfall you head out and onto the forestry road with some spectacular views. You then head onto the singe track and follow the river back to the start. 

It is not the easiest of hikes as you will need a bit of fitness to get you through it, but it is definitely fun and the views will distract you. There are a few short steep sections but most of it is on well defined paths.

There will be a few opportunities for a quick swim if you want or soak your feet in the cool river water for a refresh. 

Please note:

- The above distances and times are estimates

- The route is subject to change based on weather conditions and/or group's ability and other factors that may influence the hike

- This is NOT a beginner hike but great if you want to push yourself a bit more as some general hiking fitness will be required.

- A swimming costume and towel is optional if you want to have a quick swim in one of the pools.
