Scenic Gansbaai Spring Hike: 14 September 2024

As Mike said, "Spring has sprung and the grass is green!" On Saturday, 14 September 2024, we took on a beautiful hike in the mountains above Gansbaai, starting at the Panorama Wedding Venue. The views over Franskraal and Gansbaai were amazing, but first, we had to tackle a steep 800-meter climb! With lots of huffing and puffing, we all made it to the top.

We took a well-earned break at Brandewyn Vlei, with stunning views over Walker Bay.

A big thank you to Henry Geldenhuys for leading the hike and organizing everything, and to Dirk Staal, our sweeper, for making sure no one was left behind.

Another awesome day with great people and beautiful scenery!
