A bonus for hikers is that the farm lies much higher than surrounding farms, resulting in milder temperatures than is usual for the Transvaal bushveld. More than 800 plant species have been identified and hikers and plant lovers will observe the sound veld management for which this ranch is famous. Game species endemic to this area such as buck, warthog, bushpig, wildpig and antbear could be encountered. The trails can be approached from two sides, with accommodation offered in two restored farmhouses, Zebra and Kudu lodges. The trail meanders up and over the koppies where the white Kalahari sand and the reddish Waterberg sandstone divide can be clearly seen.
Different trees are in bloom throughout the year.
Near the Kudu camp, the Sterkstroom tributary to the Nylstroom has been dammed recently. Weary hikers can enjoy the cool water after a tough day s hike and bird hides have been erected to observe the water birds. Hikers who are eager to combine hiking with horseriding can join the Horizon Horsetrails before or after their hike. These rides offer a unique chance to muster cattle. The owners are committed conservationists and have been recognised for their veld planning and their contribution to agriculture in South Africa.
