The accommodation is better equipped than most. The kitchen is fully equipped with crockery, cutlery, pots, pans, electric kettle and has a microwave oven. Ablutions include hot showers flushing toilets and hand basins. The beds have thick comfortable mattresses. There are electric lights and plugs. Outside there is an undercover braai. Supply your own wood or charcoal.

The first day of the trail is 12km long and starts off with a short walk through pasture land until the foot of the mountains are reached. A steep climb up the side of Tepelkop follows with panoramic views back across the valley.

The trail actually fails to reach the top of Tepelkop but it is certainly worth the additional scramble up to the base of the krans. There are ways up through the krans to the top for those with a sense of adventure and a little knowledge of rock climbing. On Tepelkop you will find fine examples of the Vingerpol succulent.

From Tepelkop the trail evens out and follows a contour path for some distance. For the fit hiker, here again is the opportunity to deviate from from the trail and make the ascent to the summit of the mountains.

The trail passes a flat area of sandstone that offers beautiful views of distant mountains.

The pamphlet mentions the distance of the second day as being 8km but I would say that it is closer to 10. It took our group about 5 hours to accomplish. It is certainly a worthwhile trail to do and in fact is comparable to the first day. It is different from the first day though but just as rugged.

There are some lovely patches of indigenous bush and some interesting rock formations.
