Groenvlei Muishoek MTB Trail
Park at the Kriegler Kraal premises and pedal back the way you came for about 1 km to the red gate on your right. The route follows farm tracks all the way. From here, follow the detailed directions (your hosts will brief you) up two passes, through at least eight gates, past reservoirs and over steep necks. Several beacons will guide you along your way as you crank past Muishoek, Witkop and other farms, with the occasional stop for refreshment at some of the fountains along the way.
