On your bike
The trails feature a beginner green loop which is 6km long and consists of mostly jeep track and dirt roads.
The blue intermediate loop is just over 17km and features some challenging sections with single-track and tougher climbs. Off the blue loop riders have the option of taking the more advance black sections which are built for skilled riders. The blue trail features some an old train track and tunnel which is a great feature in the trail. Don’t be fooled by the relatively short distance, it is a testing “real” MTB trail that will test your skills and fitness levels. New blue and black sections are continually added to the trails.
There is also a 2.5km kiddies’ loop which doesn’t cross any roads and is easily manageable by kiddies, even on balance bikes.
The is no better setting for a MTB trail in Gauteng, the Avianto clubhouse is more like and exclusive golf clubhouse, and offers a pool, toilets and showers, changing rooms, tennis courts a kiddies play area, a full licensed bar and braai facilities. Picnics by the river are also welcomed. Trail runners are welcome.
