Cradle Moon Hiking Trail Review

Signs of winter are all around us. The sun rises later, and it’s much cooler in the mornings. I’m on my way to the Muldersdrift area. It’s about an hour's drive from Centurion.

Last updated: 07.04.2025 - It was Father's Day, and we were making our way back from shopping in the Centurion area. I had driven past the Grondpad Brauhouse a few times over the last couple of weeks, and I thought, "Why not? Let's go and check them out."
