Friends of the Tygerberg Hills

You might remember that we have the beautiful Tygerberg Nature Reserve at our doorstep where we have enjoyed picnics

and short walks in the past.

Now we are finally officially members of the “Friends of the Tygerberg Hills”

which not only grants us free entry to the reserve, but also allows us for instance to attend talks and join organised hikes.

For me this is the ideal opportunity to get fit while enjoying nature and I readily got up at 5am last Saturday to join the 5:30am hike.

There’s nothing better than being in nature at sunrise!

Here some pictures.

I must admit the pace was INCREDIBLE and for a while I thought I wouldn’t be able to keep it up for 2.5 hours, but then my body adjusted and it just felt so good!
