Set amid the lush landscapes of Gauteng, Copperleaf Golf and Country Estate epitomises refined living and premium amenities. This prestigious enclave blends natural beauty with exclusive recreational facilities, offering residents and guests an unparalleled experience.
Exceptional trails for outdoor enthusiasts
Copperleaf boasts a meticulously designed 10.2-kilometer mountain-biking and running trail, crafted to showcase the estate’s scenic allure. This trail features two interconnected sections, each offering a distinct adventure.
The River Side Trail spans 8 kilometres and is renowned for its fast-flowing segments and endurance challenges. This expansive route winds through verdant veld and alongside tranquil dams. With a double-width path, it accommodates side-by-side riding or running and features a looped design, allowing for multiple laps, catering to both leisurely and rigorous exercise.
The Koppie Trail, a shorter yet more technical 1.6-kilometre course, is carved into the estate’s koppie. It presents steeper inclines and tighter turns, ideal for honing technical skills. Starting and ending at the same point, this trail links seamlessly with the River Side Trail, offering a varied and stimulating outdoor experience.
Residents can access detailed trail information via the estate’s mobile app, ensuring easy planning for their outdoor activities.
Premier fishing experience
Enhancing its appeal, Copperleaf now offers licensed fishing on six of its 10 pristine dams. Home to bass, carp, tilapia and sharptooth catfish, these waters provide a diverse fishing experience. Residents can acquire fishing licences from the HOA, with day licences available for visiting family and friends.
Each dam offers unique fishing conditions and scenic beauty, allowing anglers to explore various environments. Strict regulations ensure sustainability and preserve ecological balance. Information about fishing opportunities is accessible through the estate’s mobile app.
