All Mountain Co and Boschendal Hospitality invite you to a special April Full Moon Hike before we settle in for winter. To accommodate hikers from the cancelled March Full Moon Hike we will host three Full Moon Hikes in April.
🌕✨ Join Us on One, or All of Three Editions of the Magical Full Moon Hike at Boschendal 🌕✨
on Saturday, 12 April at 16:30, Sunday, 13 April, at 17:00 and Monday, 14 April at 17:30 we’ll gather near The Retreat @ Boschendal (opposite the Pniel road from Boschendal Village) to embark on a serene 4km hike. This easy-to-moderate hike leads up to a breath-taking viewpoint where we’ll watch the sunset and full moon rise.
Finish the evening with a delightful stroll down the fairy trail back to the meeting point.
Experience the beauty of vineyards and moonlit mountain trails—it’s a night you won’t forget! 🌙🍷
