Take Back Our Mountains #TBOM376 year Anniversary hike
Grootkop Red Hill Simons Town
In collaboration with the Hikers Network.
Hikers Network and TBOM have organized this safe hike in response to the ongoing criminal activities occurring on our mountains and roads. The Table Mountain trail community will embark on a hike to Grootkop with the purpose of raising awareness about safety in our mountainous regions and providing an opportunity for both local hikers and trail runners to safely enjoy the Redhill area. #TBOM and HN are dedicated to promoting community safety hikes and the concept of safety in numbers, in addition to advocating the use of @safetymountaintracking for enhanced safety measures.
