The Magaliesberg Canopy Tour® takes you on a journey through the ecology and geology of one of the oldest mountain ranges in the world – estimated to be 2,500 million years old.
The Magaliesberg Canopy Tour is located in the Magaliesberg Biosphere Reserve – 1 ½ hours from Joburg and 1 hour from Pretoria.
Eleven platforms have been built against the cliff and rock faces of the spectacular Ysterhout Kloof, a beautiful gorge carved out of the mountainside, and are joined by long steel cables that you slide along to reach the next platform. Much like a “foefie” slide, the canopy tour essentially involves zigzagging down the kloof while stopping at each platform to admire the expansive views and surrounding ecology.
The Magaliesberg mountains are home to a wide variety of plant, animal, and birdlife – watch out for the shy klipspringer jumping from rock to rock below you or look up to spot an endangered black eagle circling above. Two trained canopy guides assure the safety of each participant while describing interesting facts about the indigenous plants, bird life, ecology and geology of the area.

We had an amazing team-building experience at Magalies Canopy Tour! The staff were friendly, professional, and made everyone feel safe from start to finish. Our guides, Doni and Thami, were fantastic---fun, patient, and great at keeping the energy high. The slides offered breathtaking views of the Magaliesberg Biosphere, and even our nervous team members ended up loving it. The check-in process was smooth, everything ran on time, and the photos and videos afterward were such a special bonus. Highly recommended for team building or just an unforgettable adventure!
