Rugged Jonkershoek mountains

are in a wonderful nature reserve which is very popular with hikers and mountain bike cyclists. As it can be a strenuous hike, there are quite a few waterfalls and little pools in which to cool down.

@jeneurell Although we do not get any snow on the ground here, The higher peaks do get quite a bit some winters. Up country about 120 kms from us one can even build a snowman. The Drakensberg in Kwazulu Natal province even has a few ski and snowboarding resorts. It is about 1200kms from Cape Town ;-)
@sangwann It really is a stunning country Dione but it sure has it's negative sides too ;-)

Beautiful scenery. Awesome capture.
