Hiking
Hiking
is a great sport and is the best way to see the mountains, hills,
forests and beaches of our country.
As university students, we are able to participate in hikes organized by the Mountain Club of South Africa, as well as the Mountain Backpackers Club, without having to pay their membership fee. A list of hikes organized by these clubs can be obtained by contacting them.
Please contact the hiking officer for further details.
