If it is mind space riding you’re looking for, pedal onto the Touwsberg tracks for a Klein Karoo trail that will completely recharge your soul.

Escape into the rural hinterland of the Klein Karoo along the R62, avoiding the temptation to stop off at the infamous ‘Ronnie’s Sex Shop’. The spoils at glorious Touwsberg Private Nature Reserve – your intended destination – far outweigh Ronnie’s selection of well-used lingerie.
