Cubs and Scouts enjoy hike at Melville Koppies

The first German Cubs and Scouts and their families enjoyed a hike at Melville Koppies.

Undaunted by the fire-blackened veld just starting to green, they sped up to the lecture hut to pore over the numerous information boards before climbing right to the top for the beautiful views.

Organisations are invited to bring their groups for a peaceful escape right in the middle of Joburg.
