My Kgale Hill Climbing Experience

Situated just behind the popular Game City Mall, on the western edge of the city, the baboon-infested hill has over time earned quite a reputation as a fitness hub amoung fitness enthusiasts from greater Gaborone. Even though the majority of the individuals go up the hill for fitness purposes, some just go for leisure as well as to get a feel of the outdoors. Even fitness clubs around town have included the tackle of the rough and rocky terrain in their training programmes.

Being a fitness enthusiast myself, who longed to go up the hill since 2006 when I was still at school I could not manage to do so during this time because of a tight schedule. After all this was nothing like the small hills of my home village that I had often climbed. City Gaborone, a close friend and football player did not however give up constantly challenging me to take up the task.
