Itinerary:

The first part of the hike is along a gas road for 4km. Then we follow a well defined trail up the valley, continue into forest which can be overgrown, leave the forest and ascend to the Loaf/Spionkop col. We will hike to the highest point on Spionkop that does not involve scrambling. We will not summit the highest point on Spionkop Ridge as this involves moderate scrambling. This hike is exploratory and involves some route finding.
