The route can be walked starting from either side and can be done as a figure of eight starting and finishing at the same point, or just one way if you have transport arranged on the other side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>De Postkantoor Restaurant<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:15% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"414\" height=\"414\" src=\"https:\/\/hoenderhok.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Poskantoor-logo.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-676 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hoenderhok.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Poskantoor-logo.jpg 414w, https:\/\/hoenderhok.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Poskantoor-logo-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hoenderhok.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Poskantoor-logo-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 414px) 100vw, 414px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pg\/DePostkantoor\/photos\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pg\/DePostkantoor\/photos\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>MTB Tesselaarsdal &#8211; WESTERN CAPE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Route one rated for the less experienced rider and&nbsp;family friendly. &nbsp;Distance approximately 15&nbsp;kilometers with about 350 meters of climbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Route two for the more experienced rider: Distance approximately 31 Kilometres with 800 meters of climbing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Route three for the experienced rider looking for a challenge: Distance approximately 56 kilometres with about 1500 meters of climbing<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Solitaire Equestrian Riding Academy<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pony rides and Outrides against the mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Haarkapper Hiking Trail Jannie Willemse was a farmer from Tesselaarsdal who used to walk 20km over the Klein River Mountains to Stanford every Saturday, to cut the townsfolk\u2019s hair, before returning to his Tesselaarsdal farm the same day.
