About this Activity
Nestled between Pretoria and Johannesburg, The Big Red Barn is a sprawling farm precinct offering fresh air and outdoor adventures for all ages. Families can dive into energetic fun with Acrobranch treetop obstacle courses, explore kids’ play areas, or hit 40km of scenic mountain biking and hiking trails winding through shady eucalyptus forests. For a more relaxed pace, children paint ceramics at Create Café while older kids snap photos in the unique selfie booths. The venue is highly practical, welcoming dogs on the trails and operating daily. When hunger strikes, head to the Red Barn Café for wood-fired pizzas, Belgian waffles, and gluten-free or vegetarian options. With wide-open lawns and three restaurants to choose from, it is the perfect destination for an active and memorable family day out.
