There are 3 marked routes. I suggest you do route 1 first. It is short but pretty cool to orientate yourself. Then try 2 and 3. I cant remember the distances. Your alternative is to do an anti-clockwise loop following the road as close to the fence as possible. The loop pretty much starts and end other side of the highway bridge. Do a search for northern farm here and you'll find some maps.

 

Have a cool time.

I was not following any specific routes, but here are a few ideas of where the tracks are:

The route boards are a bit chaotic at certain places, and remember not to act like BTS Be curtious, and remember to smile and wave! You will get riders going the other/'wrong' way

Don't spend too much time playing below, you still need to ride up those hills at the end of the day.

Find a map, look at it then leave it in the car and have fun!!

Thanks for all the feedback guys.

hopefully picking up my new bike today, so thought i'd give NF a bash.

previously only ridden  Groenies, Rievlei,Logwood and newwood.

so thought a change for my new baby would be good......

Do you stop to play below or can you do it on the move?

I hope Mampara was referring to the sections closer to the airport, on the other side of the small dams where you can go up and down the dam[n] walls...

We ride there couple times a month, my advice ... just ride where the wind takes you and explore all the small tracks. Some of the real gems are in between the main routes. Just pack a sandwich and take a bladder and go explore the farm. Enjoy!

Agree 100% but for a first ride it is good to stick to the trails so you get a feel for the layout and size of the place.
