Umgeni Reserve ramble …

Amidst the rolling hills and rugged terrain

trails await, a true hikers dream;

The Umgeni Reserve is a wilderness retreat

a true feast for the feet;

With trail snacks, backpacks and boots laced tight

us three ventured forth into the light;

As the sun beat down we head up and down hill;

what a total and compete thrill;

The trail leads on with twists and turns

the birds sing sweetly and the water churns;

We savour the peace and solitude

in this haven of nature complementing our perfect mood;

The hike is done but the memories stay

of this fabulous, fun and fine day ….

It is all about the company … words by Hayley Muirhead
