Hike the Koppies
1 DECEMBER — See how the veld has turned green and come alive after the rain. Join in on a 4km guided walk (it takes three hours) on Melville Koppies and learn about who used to live there and how they lived; be surprised by the ways in which animals and plants interact with each other – not always in a friendly way. The hike kicks off at 3pm sharp. Adults pay R60 and children R40. Details: www.mk.org.za or phone 011 482 4797.
