    Nice and easy hike - beginner level, kid friendly. Beautiful views from city, dam and landscape with South Africa on the horizon. Careful with baboons near parking lot. Bring water, stay hydrated. Please don't litter, so sad to see trash everywhere. On the way down from the hill pay attention when to leave paved path otherwise you will end up at the quarry.

    Always a great hike up Kgale Hill. Easy enough and a great workout. Hike with friends as its safer than hiking it alone. Always make way for the baboons if they are also on the same trail as you. Be cautious of your surroundings for snakes and scorpions. Enjoy the view when you reach the summit!

    Make sure you follow the path and white arrows others wise you will get lost. The trail to the left is the hard one to go up. Take the one that splits to the right if you going with your family. Just ask the locals for the way. Very friendly

    Beautiful views of the city of Gaborone. Easy hike with multiple routes to the top. Mornings are the best time to hike for safety.

    Highest peak of the Gaborone City. A view of the Country's 1st Biggest Dam is Clearer with all its angles visible. The City's view is also much amazing from this side which of course gives angles to the South & South western part of the City which entailes the Urban & industrial places. It's also amazing to be there on a drizzling/ rain or cloudy day... It can remind you of Cape Town's Table mountain

    At 4222 feet above sea level, I can only advise intending hikers to ensure to have first aid tools and be sure they are medically fit before embarking on this steep hike. I speak from experience

    The hiking is beautiful and other hikers very friendly! The view of the city and reservoir are very pretty. The paragliding was amazing with great thermals and perfect terrain for take off and landing!

    There's a tough but good hiking trail

  • 4/5 Muhammad K. 5 months ago on Google • 21 reviews
    The park offers a serene atmosphere with scenic views. Well-maintained trails are suitable for outdoor activities, and while there's room for additional amenities, it stands as a commendable location for relaxation and recreation.

  • 5/5 Masedi M. 6 years ago on Google
    The hike up there is good exercise and worth the view. Its peaceful, refreshing and occasionally you see friendly squirrels or baboons on the road there.

  • 5/5 Frank S. 1 year ago on Google
    Arrived at 4:45am in order to reach the top of the hill by 5:20am in time for sunrise. The hike up the hill is not challenging and can be done in the dark with a small torch, even the mobile phone. If it isn't a cloudy day then the view of the sun coming through over the hills is a beautiful sight. Worth a try!

    Solid hiking trail! The first few minutes from the parking are effectively through industrial grounds, around a quarry fence, but after that it’s straight up and into the hills. Trails (there are several variations) are unmistakable and easy to follow. On a Saturday morning, there were many others hiking too: we passed a group coming down every few minutes. It felt safe and fun. Glad we did this! Took about 1h45 round-trip.

  • 4/5 Boitshepo “Booster” R. 1 year ago on Google
    Here every sunday, to take time out of the city. Nice place. Lots of water bottles left along the way, more at the top. I encourage people to move in groups, petty crimes on the rise, even at the top. Thank you and keep kgale clean

  • 4/5 Aaplamandar 1 year ago on Google
