About this route
The novice-graded starter loop at Van Gaalen cheese farm, the official first-timer's pick on the 80 km Skeerpoort Valley network. It threads almost flat along the Skeerpoort River under a canopy of trees, through reed tunnels and over little bridges below the Magaliesberg ridgeline, with stroller-friendly stretches.
