Heritage Hike - Linksfield Ridge and Harvey Nature Reserve

ABOUT

Joburg’s ridges are its defining feature and the Linksfield Ridge is one of the most magnificent. This heritage hike takes us along the iconic Linksfield Ridge through the Harvey Nature Reserve, with spectacular views across Kensington and Orange Grove.

It’s memorable walk that features a wealth of bird and plant life, quirky historical stories, a geological heritage that goes back 3 billion years, and some of the best selfie opportunities in Joburg! You’ll also get the latest updates on our efforts to reclaim the ridge, in partnership with Johannesburg City Parks.

Please note: This walk is strenuous and is only recommended for the fit. Sunhats, good walking shoes or boots, water, snacks and sunblock are essential. The hike is approximately 5km and includes several steep inclines and declines.
