If you are spending time in Pretoria and looking for a bit of escape then this is the right place. There are numerous hiking and mountainbikig trails (bikes can also be hired) and entrance frees are relatively inexpensive. Numerous game animals including giraffe, antelope and birds. However be vigilant as there have been incidents of crime. More
