About fedgroup
trails
At Fedgroup Trails, we’re creating something bold for the ones who’d rather chase horizons than stay inside. If that sounds like your kind of adventure, then this safe, well-maintained network is calling your name!
We’re planning over 80km of rugged scenic trails, with routes that’ll take you through some of the most beautiful spots just 45 kilometers from Joburg. Currently, you can hit the trails from Avianto Clubhouse or Cradle Moon.
And there’s even more on the way, with a new starting point, Syringa Park, at Avianto Estate, planning to launch by the end of January 2026.
Our vision
Mountain hike, bike or run your way to physical and financial fitness. Our trails help you get out there and do more of what you love, all year long.
Our mission
Fedgroup Trails is a non-profit initiative that offers active, fitness conscious and outdoor enthusiastic South Africans a network of well-maintained trails in and around the Cradle of Humankind.

Editor, TREAD Media and expert mountain biker
"I have been riding the Fedgroup Trails during various stages of their development for longer than 20 years. Over time, as mountain biking has become more popular, the trails network within Fedgroup Trails has developed into a professionally built, well-marked and consistently maintained trails network that is both challenging and rewarding. There are routes suitable for all skill and fitness levels and there’s a high level of safety, which is important in South Africa. I’m excited that the mountain bike trails in the Cradle of Humankind region have a promising future under the Fedgroup Trails management and look forward to spending many more years enjoying them."
