Start and finish at the Garden Route Botanical Garden. Follow the railway line and pick up the trails in an easterly direction.

At the 5km mark, you will get to a jeep track, turn left towards the old George dam and stay on the trail next to the Swartrivier.

Cross the dam wall and follow the trail to Tierkop hut. You have the option to tag Tierkop peak on the right of the hut, which is an out-and-back section of 800 meters in total. Continue clockwise around Tierkop and join up with the jeep track, then head down the road towards Pepsi Pools and join up with the trail you started with all the way back to the finish.
