ROUTE

Where the wine trails takes you...

DAY 1

WHERE THE ADVENTURE BEGINS

DISTANCE: 20KM | ELEVATION: 457M

Arrive at De Stilte, a luxury tented escape in the heart of the Tulbagh Valley, where a light lunch and refreshments await before you set off.
Today’s 20km ride follows the foothills of the Witzenberg Mountains. The Klein Witzenberg switchbacks will wake up the legs before the route winds down through the vineyards towards De Kleine Wijn at Driefonteine, where a wine stop at 9.9km offers the perfect pause to take in the surroundings.
With around 457m of climbing, it’s a challenging ride — but the sweeping valley views make every climb worthwhile. The final Corkscrew singletrack gradually carries you up the koppie, setting you up for an exhilarating descent and one of the most beautiful finishes of the weekend, back at De Stilte.

REFRESHMENT STOPS: 9.9KM 
RECOMMENDED BIKE: Mountain Bike or E-Bike

RIDE DEEPER INTO THE CAPES BEAUTY

It's the most challenging ride of the weekend, but arguably the most rewarding. Take your time, settle into the rhythm of the day and savour the changing landscapes as you make your way through the valley. At the finish, the experience continues at Twee Jonge Gezellen, where bubbles and burgers await. From there, sit back and enjoy the shuttle ride back.
