Since taking over the trails at Rhebokskloof Wine Estate in Paarl in 2016 the team from Hero Adventure Trails have worked hard with many of the locals and land owners to develop something special . The Trails at Rheboks were already special so it made our job much easier to add to an already awesome place . Over the last few years we have not only totally redeveloped the trails , added many new sections and looked at how we can make a visit to the venue something to remember . Help from many legends including Duran the man , Jan Van Schalkwyk , Andrew Neethling , Hans Degenaar ,Louis Ferrera , Paarl MTB Locals and and may others . Together with our local powerhouse Darren Herbst , Hero Adventure Trails -Rhebokskloof is fast becoming a place where awesome memories are created. Trails : The Trails have been built to cater for MTB , Trail Running and Hiking * 3km Yellow : flat and flowing with lots of wide single-track . perfect for a short ride and kiddies , close to the venue * 5km Green : We have tried to created a little more adventure than the normal 5km trails around , lots of Single track and even a few features , perfect for a run and ride with the family * 10km Blue : The Blue trail starts to showcase some of the great reasons why this property is so special , Packed with flow trails , berms , and fun with not to much climbing * 20km Red : Probably the feature trail at the venue . the Pinotage trail will give you a ride/run/walk packed with. varied terrain , great views , lots of features and oodles of Single-track . * 35km Black : The big daddy and if you can suck up the climbs you are rewarded over and over again . this trail speaks for itself Hero Adventure Trails has also partnered up with Paarl Adventure trails and so have direct links to the Orange Trail , Link trails into the Paarl Mountain as well as Link trails to Spice Route .With a total network of over 200km of trails options are endless We have dedicated trail maintenance teams on the trails 7 days a week and continue to add and hopefully improve wherever we can , thanks to the great support from locals and land owners. Venue: Rhebokskloof is not only a really special venue to visit with its quality wines , food and other activities . The owners and management are passionate about adventure and constantly look for ways to improve visitor experiences . The Restaurant , conference area and wine tasting venue are currently been revamped to include a coffee shop , new restaurant and cyclist / runner friendly chill areas . The entire team from Hero Adventure continue to work hard to improve our offerings and services to visitors . We are far from perfect but will try our asses of to at least put a smile on each face that visits our trails . check out all the info on the trails at http://www.hero-adventure.co.za

Hi there, I'm sending out invite to anyone who is interested in cycling from Richards Bay to Lilongwe (Malawi). This will be my second long distance ride following the first which was a ride that took me from Cape Town to Kosi Bay (2235km over 47 days) in 2012/2013 I'm planning on leaving Richards Bay around the 28th December (possibly sooner) and flying back home to CT from Lilongwe no later than the 8 February 2015. this is 43 days on the road. The route I've had my eyes on will go from Richards bay through Swaziland, back into SA and onto Zimbabwe. North through Zim, through a small portion of Mozambique before entering into Malawi. This looks at being about 2600km. A little bit about myself, I'm a 21 year old UCT student doing a Bsc. I'm not actually that crazy about cycling but its the best way to get around especially if its doing it the hard way. I'm a very easy going, mellow but focused guy and obviously have a thing for long adventurous journeys. I'm more than happy to be doing this ride alone but some company is always nice and probably a little bit safer doing it in a pair or a party. If this sparks interest, excitement and a burning desire in you let's talk. Jed
