Matroosberg MTB Trails
Grading: Intermediate to Difficult
A relatively easy 15 km cross-country loop traverses the foothills of the Matroosberg Mountains, with at least 60% of the route along single-track. The downhill track, however, is a different story. The course starts high up on Matroosberg Peak before dropping an awesome 1,081m in just 11 km! The course follows a dual-track 4x4 route and should not be attempted by riders without the necessary experience.
