Here are our 7 things to do in Citrusdal
1.Boschkloof MTB Trail
For an outstanding Mountain Bike Trail, get to Citrusdal and try the Boschkloof MTB trail. This 26 kilometre trail is suitable for riders of all levels yet presents enough of a challenge for the more experienced rider.
2. Cederberg 100 Trail
One of the newest in the Cederberg Heritage Route’s collection of slackpack trails, you might have to walk almost 100 km in the space of a week, but you won’t have to carry too much, prepare any meals, put up any tents or do any dishes. And if it gets too difficult, you can always opt to join the donkey cart that transports the bags on any given day
3 . Citrusdal Museum
The Citrusdal Museum is housed in a former old stone church. Here you will discover more about the first colonists and San inhabitants in the area. The fascinating tools and utensils used by the Khoisan are incredible, it’s hard to imagine how these items were crafted and used so effectively.
