Chavo Posted April 24, 2015 Share Day permits will now also be sold at the new coffee shop at Hazendal, but only from 8 am. If you want to ride earlier, please buy your permits at the Engen garage at Soneike, Kuilsriver. The coffee shop is to your right just before you enter the parking lot. There is also a bike wash in the corner of the parking lot near the barns. Rode Bottelary from Hazendal this past Sunday. The coffee shop opened at 9am not 8am, not sure if it would open earlier on a Saturday. Rather stop at the Engen if you want to start early. Day permit was R50 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wannabe Posted April 24, 2015 Share Bottom of Bottelary rd, as you come from Stikland / Bellville side. There is a small Shopping Complex there. (Soneike) Edited April 24, 2015 by Wannabe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droenn Posted April 24, 2015 Share Sorry to hijeck but please can someone point me to a trailhead in stellenbosch. I'm dead keen to ride tomorrow before I go to Sedgefield. Please please please. Here is a really quick attempt: Might be slightly off, but there are a heap of people up there at the moment. Once you get on the gravel (either come through behind the hockey fields next to river or enter at paradyskloof - then you're at eden anyway) just head up & towards trees - if you get lost ask another rider how to get to the single tracks... should point you in right direction.

dirtypot Posted April 28, 2015 Share So we went for a ride there on Saturday morning - did the green, red, blue and yellow routes. 47km. I enjoyed it! My riding partner (who decided to tube his front wheel instead of repairing the tubeless) got four punctures from thorns and so didn't enjoy it as much...It was more challenging than I was expecting it to be!Some of that single track is just awesome though.
