6-ish hours in YLW

Doing an MR to and from YLW and arrive around 10 AM and leave at 5 PM, so giving about 10 mins to clear security when departing, I have some time to kill.

Any quick, easy trails near YLW? I see Paul's Tomb, which, according to Google Maps is a 3 hours' walk from YLW, so there and back is 6 hours.

I'll have a light backpack, and am reasonably fit.

Thanks for any suggestions you can provide!

see the YLW web site

The area is very scenic. I hike as well, but I am not sure I would begin at the airport. There are a bunch of ride hailing services listed on the YLW site along with public transit. Two places to start?

I could definitely include transit to and from the trail. Will do some more reading, but generally, as long as I am walking it is all good.

A little north of the airport is Spion Kop park Might be a bit closer and counterflow to traffic You could conceivably walk there using the old railway trail.
