About the Event
Description:
🎒 Geo-Heritage Hiking Ramble – Warthogs Bush Camp
Swap city streets for ancient bedrock and big-sky views! Join local historian and raconteur Rob Milne on a 5 km storytelling hike up Timeball Hill, where the plains of Magaliesburg stretch south and the Magaliesberg Mountains rise northward. Along the way you’ll:
Trace two billion years of dramatic geologic upheaval and erosion
Hear tales of early hominids, fortune-seekers, soldiers, prophets and hunters
Spot game, butterflies, wildflowers and towering bushveld trees from spectacular viewpoints
After the descent, cool off in one of two swimming pools, then tuck into an extensive lunch menu or relax with a cold drink at the Lapa (cash bar). Complimentary coffee & tea await on arrival. Numbers are limited—secure your spot today!
