Jonkershoek: R500 for annual membership from the date of permit.  Not sure how much the family membership is, but they have one.

Jonkershoek also gives you access to MTO trails in Grabouw, making it a good value proposition.

Moving from  Paarl to Durbanville and decided to join Tygerberg MTB, just thought I would put it out there that it was such an absolute pleasure working with them smooth, easy and well organised. Very impressed and looking forward to my riding there.

 

Just thought I'd chuck that out there...something positive amidst all the complaints/accidents/fights on the Hub

Welcome in Durbanville!

 

In addition to the Tygerberg permit, I reckon it could be worth your while to get the Bottelary permit as well (www.bottelaryconservancy.co.za)

 

Going to explore Hawequa forest tomorrow with some mates.

Cool have fun! The roads are a little worn out now cause of the trucks carting the the logs down, so be safe and keep an eye out for the traffic

Daily permits available 7 days of the week..Tokai ,Kirstenbosch ,Silvermine and (city )Tourist Bureau ..cnr Berg and Castle

 

Note the Activity permit is 12 months from your date of purchase...so you can go any time  and have the benefit of a full 12 months

 

The Activity permit fees have increased to R500 PP/PA....but there is a alternative option

So Although the Primary member costs R500 PP you can have up to 3 Additional members @ (R215.00)pp 

(they don't have to be family members)

# So if you get 3 other riders as additional members they only pay R215pp 

... split/share the total cost by 4 and you can get your permit for R286.25 PP/PA

You don't have to all go in as a group one person can do all the paperwork 

The main member obviously takes his ID...and the other 3 if they are physically going to the offices.

2. a certified copy of their ID's

3. the form below completed and signed.

Although it states that it needs to be certified, mine wasn't and I still got the permits.

Alternatively you can just take the original ID's with and let them make copies of it.

I'm keen. I'll be able to go in and get it done if anyone interested can drop me all required docs.

Looking for willing "family" members...anyone?

 

Anyone know if the inverse is possible? Have more than 7 people that are interested. Can I buy on behalf of them? or does it strictly have to be at least one person in the.... ("flamesuit-on") four ball in person          

[sub7]

Looking for 3 "family members". Anyone still needing to get an Activity Card?

Don't have to be family members, any three arbitrary passing mountain bikers will do.

[marko35s]

No, none of them I used were certified.

odd that.

When I chatted to the staff at Tokai they were adamant that they needed to be certified.

May just be safer to get them certified to avoid a runaround.

I'm still keen, mate.
