Cradle of Humankind is the most popular cycling area in JoBurg. One of the few places with dedicated bike lanes.

The Cradle of Humankind is a World Heritage Site first named by UNESCO in 1999, about 50 kilometres northwest of Johannesburg …

… it contains a complex of limestone caves, including the Sterkfontein Caves, where the 2.3-million year-old fossil Australopithecus africanus (nicknamed “Mrs. Ples”) was found in 1947 …

We had a drink at the Neck and Deck rooftop restaurant.


Thanks William!
