Giants Cup Trail

Midlands

This 5-day hike starts at Sani Pass and ends at Bushman’s Nek. It is a 59.3 km marked trail and is suitable for beginners and children as the route is not overly strenuous. Day 1 starts off with 13.3 km and can take approximately 6 hours to complete – this is the longest of the 5 days with the others ranging between 9km and just over 12km. Accommodation is in overnight huts that can accommodate 30 people. Basic facilities include showers, toilets, bunk beds, benches and tables. Fires are only permitted at two of the huts.

The weather changes rapidly here, so packing for this trip may be difficult. It is advised that you pack for all weather conditions. Don’t forget your camera, as there are many breath-taking photographic opportunities.

This is not a circular route, so it is advisable to arrange for transport at the finishing point.
