This is the original, eco-adventure, canopy tour in the Magaliesberg Biosphere Reserve, professionally operated and unequalled by any of its rivals.

Experience the 2 400-million-year-old Magaliesberg Mountains on a unique canopy tour through Ysterhout Kloof. The Magaliesberg Canopy Tour consists of 11 platforms, built high up within the rock faces of the kloof, and joined by 10 slides of up to 140 m long and 30 m above the stream below.

Trained guides assure the safety of each client, while sharing interesting facts about the ancient mountain, surrounding ecology, bird and animal life. This is where your unforgettable, unmatchable adventure begins — enjoy flying through nature.

At Magaliesberg Canopy Tour we can accommodate wheelchair-bound adventure enthusiasts, through our innovative sliding chair, called Lettie.

We are only a 1½-hour drive from Johannesburg and Pretoria, halfway between Harteespoort and Rustenburg, in the heart of the Magaliesberg Mountains

An hour and a half to the site from Joburg and a fantastic day out. Beautiful country side and a thrilling yet safe experience on the zipline. Our guides were friendly and full of humour through out. Can't recommend this enough. Take a swimming costume as there is an awesome pool to see in after you finish ziplining in the sunshine.
