Stellenbosch Trail Fund
Building & Maintaining Stellenbosch’s Trails
What we do
Stewards of Stellenbosch’s Natural Resources
We create, improve and maintain hiking, biking and running trails in and around Stellenbosch.
We help clean and rehabilitate the Eerste River.
Contributors to Our Local Community
We partner with other NGOs to promote Stellenbosch’s green and bicycle economies.
We employ river and trail workers and sponsor mountain-bike guide training for local community members.
Event and Trip Organisers
We host several trail races each year and are planning more for the future.
Our trained guides offer trail rides suitable for all ages, helping you explore our trails safely and comfortably.
About Us
The Stellenbosch Trail Fund is a community organisation that maintains several of our town’s world class natural resources, including the upper reaches of the Eerste River and hiking, biking and running trails in and around Stellenbosch. Our stewardship is funded by both private and corporate donors and extends beyond the physical landscape, to the facilitation of skills development and creation of economic opportunities in outdoor recreation and tourism for our local communities.
