Test your limits.

Rurimeria-table mountain traverse is a unique hike that combines invigorating climbs, golden moorlands, mystical ponds, and steep descents.

The hike starts at the Geta Bush area through grassland and moorland with steep ascents, heather slopes, and rocky outcrops to the treacherous summit. Next comes the 1.5km hike to the seven natural ponds nestled in the moorland. From the ponds, we continue to the Table Mountain summit across the golden moorland, adding 3km to the journey. The final leg is a 6.5km steep descent to Kwa Matu.
