Guest notmyname Posted October 1, 2015 Share Has anyone done the cradle loop and included hobby park? Where is the best place to park for an adventure like this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted October 1, 2015 Share Hmmm.. I spose you could park at hobby, domthe 40kms. Then head down the gulley at the back of silverstar, through the culvert at silverstar hit right to get to the garage, cross the major intersection, right at the next culvert then on to muldersdrift, then it's the drag on the tar to get to the cradle section. Not my fav type of ride thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RocknRolla Posted October 1, 2015 Share I would rather park at avianto, ride avianto, then onto the cradle strip, then either complete the loop past valverde, or slab it back to avianto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armand08 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Its been a while.. who is now responsible for the maintenance on these trails? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Boab Posted February 22, 2018 Share Its been a while.. who is now responsible for the maintenance on these trails? I'd guess it's still Hero Adventure? I see their signs are out at the moment as they're busy extending the trail along the Beyers section and down the hill to the school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppi Posted February 22, 2018 Share I'd guess it's still Hero Adventure?

I think that is part of the new cradle mtb loop extension from the M5 circle down beyers and right back to kloofzicht..................

Presumably if Hero are doing the extension, they are also responsible for maintenance of the existing Cradle MTB trail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicbez Posted February 22, 2018 Share Some info on the Cradle MTB loop For a bit more information, the N3 Gateway Tourism Association, in partnership with Terra Firma Trail Solutions (Glenn Harrison) and CESBE (Pty) Ltd, has been awarded the contract by the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site Management Authority to build a 14km mountain bike trail within the road reserve of the D374 and D101. This is an extension of the existing 18km Cradle Gateway-2-Gateway mountain bike trail, and the end result will be a full circular loop. The project kicked off at the end of 2017, and is estimated to reach completion at the end of April 2018 (latest). As mentioned in the earlier posts, the trail is visible and people have started to ride it - but here is where we need to ask politely that riders stay off the trail until it is completed. We know this will be difficult as enthusiasm levels are high, but it is a health and safety requirement, and any kind of accident could result in the project being delayed. By the end of this week yellow signs will start appearing on the trail, as well as barricades and danger tape, asking riders to please stay off the incomplete trail. If you could please respect these measures and perhaps share with your friends and riding associates who may be heading out to check out the new trails, that would be appreciated. If you have any questions regarding the Cradle Trail project, please feel free to contact Matthew Drew on matthewd@n3gateway.com EmptyB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcd Posted May 6, 2018 Share Has anybody else encountered motorcyclist on the Cradle Mtb loop ? Today at 10.35 just opposite Cradle Moon 2 guys on Touring bikes were riding in the opposite direction to what cyclists have to ride. This is the 2nd time I have seen bikes using the trails. Any suggestions on what can be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
