Even if the temperatures are reaching into the 30s, you can still find spots in Melville Koppies Nature Reserve and Heritage Site to cool you down. Whether it’s walking through the forest, alongside the river or taking in the beautiful views, all are guaranteed to ease you into the festive season.
Melville Koppies is open on Sunday mornings from 8h00 until 11h30. Guide yourself along the many paths, test your fitness on the 5km hike or teach yourself about the history of the Koppies on the self-guided heritage trail.
Or if you want to learn more about the history, the geology, the plants and much, much more, book your own guide (call 079 532 0083 or e-mail wendavid@mweb.co.za) or join a guided tour that leaves at 8.30am every Sunday.
