Itinerary description

I CANNOT recommend this trail yet. Kilometres 6-9ish need remapping.
This should be a moderate rated track not a difficult one.

I was following a trail from 2015 which started on an easy if rutted by tractors path to the 6 km point. Here there was shown a path to the left of the pylon which I could not find and took a path on the right. This had a bit of bush whacking for around 400 M but not to bad and then joined a single track down to the stream.
Don't cross the stream but turn left and follow it upstream, this is where it got messy for me.
The route I followed looked like they climbed a hill, that's what I did and don't do that!
My advice would be to follow the stream until you get near the road (not asphalt) then climb to the road but this needs some further exploration. (drone?)

On the road I soon turned left, you can stay on the road if you wish. Left turn eventually came to some small holding fields and then the town.
If you do simplify this route please let me know.
Wildlife included frogs, lizards, birds & butterflies , a snake & buffalo.
I wore walking boots and had 1 walking pole with me and with the route I took needed both.

Enjoy
