\u201cWe are extremely excited to be part of the Savanna Origin of Trails MTB Experience,\u201d says Douw van der Merwe, MTO Eco-tourism Manager. \u201cJonkershoek is such a special place! Once you enter the valley you are just taken aback by the beauty and awe of the mountains that surround you, they stand towering over you as you navigate yourself around the best crafted trails in the country. What more could you want than sharing amazing trails with friends and connecting with nature?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter the devastating fires (experienced earlier this year), the team did an amazing job repairing and upgrading the trails,\u201d continues van der Merwe. \u201cWith support from the local community and our partners we are thankful to be able to share the trails with an even greater outdoor community and culture. MTO is strongly invested in the continuous growth and improvement of our offering, so come and visit us to see the exciting developments in the valley.
