Silvermine West - River Walk, Steenberg Ridge, Panarama loop

Start from the car park to the left of the entrance (Gate 1).   Take the river walk to the mountain bike car park, through the car park.  Left up the gravel road to the path on the right that leads up onto Steenberg Ridge.  Follow that path northwards until it joins the Elephants Eye Path.  Turn left onto the Elephants Eye Path (away from the look out) and head towards Houtbay lookout.  At the junction with the main circuit path turn right for a shorter (10km) route back to the cars via the dam and the cycle route (runs next to the river walk) or turn right and do the Panarama loop before returning via the cycle route for just over 13km.  If you fancy some more single track you can take the lower Panarama loop - about 12km.
