Perfect partnership linking hiking trails in Cape Winelands is saving lives – Trails SA's Reghard Goussard

Loading player...
What started as an initiative by Trails SA, a non-profit organisation connecting mountain biking trails in the Cape Winelands, has developed into a project that not only benefits cyclists but all the communities in the area, especially the school children who have to brave dangerous roads to get to school. The Founder of Trails SA, Reghard Goussard, told BizNews that it is a perfect partnership between the private sector, communities and the government - has saved lives and made a major difference to people in the area in less than a year. Goussard said future plans would involve linking first the Western Cape trails and then the 22,000 km of hiking trails nationally to create a super network of trails. - Linda van Tilburg Learn more about your ad choices.
