I
really
don’t
want
to
say
anything
bad
about
the
place
as
I
try
to
cherish
every
opportunity
I
can
get
to
do
a
hike
in
such
an
unspoilt
environment
but…
we
set
out
early
to
do
the
Hardepeerkloof
hike.
What
was
supposed
to
have
been
a
5km
hike
turned
into
a
unsuccessfully
completed
hike.
According
to
the
board
you
have
to
start
on
the
Platkloof
trail
and
then
it
should
veer
off.
After
4km
zig
zagging
up
we
eventually
reached
a
t-junction
that
wasn’t
on
the
map.
With
no
trail
markings
or
any
idee
how
much
further
we
still
have
to
go,
we
decided
to
rather
go
back
the
way
we
came.
I’d
like
to
think
that
we
are
moderately
fit
but
I
wouldn’t
recommend
this
unless
you
are
very
fit.
The
trail
is
steep
and
the
higher
you
go
the
more
the
trail
is
covered
in
lose
rocks.
To
add
insult
to
injury,
when
we
made
it
back
to
the
car,
a
‘guide’
at
the
gate
said
we
actually
had
to
take
the
Boesmanskloof
trail
which
eventually
would
have
take
us
to
the
summit.
Long
story
short,
if
you
aren’t
familiar
with
the
various
trails
on
offer,
rather
stick
with
the
Platkloof
trail.
It
appears
to
be
the
best
marked
and
therefore
safer.
