# The South African National Parks has confirmed that the second phase of the reopening of Silvermine Gate 1 and most trails in the Silvermine area will commence from 1 September, 2025. This follows the reopening of Silvermine Gate 2 and parts of Tokai in July, after fires damaged two-thousand-800 hectares earlier this year. Upper Tokai, including Levels 4 and 5, will also reopen. However, some routes remain closed for safety and rehabilitation. SANParks urges visitors to adhere to signage and ranger instructions.
