NickofWestville Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Is anybody aware of any trails in the Drakensberg Sun area...ie should I take my MTB...Thanks in advance
Griffin Posted November 1, 2015 Posted November 1, 2015 Mountain Splendour has some great riding. Chat to Ian or Sue at reception. Dragon Peaks has some new trails too.
ByronH Posted November 4, 2015 Posted November 4, 2015 Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort is down the road from Drakensberg Sun. MTB Trails at the Adventure Centre, Dragon Peaks. We were just down there actually. We really enjoyed the ScooTours... offroad non-motorised scooters. Definitely give them a go! http://scootours.co.za/drakensberg/
L.T.G Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 I'm hopefully going to the Drakensberg Sun at the end of the month, is the above info still the same?or are there other places now too?
dave303e Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 mountain splendour has trails and they will do longer guided outrides.But take a gps and cable, there is a shop in the complex opposite Champagne sports that will give you gps routes for rides in the area. There are marked routes as well, look for the dayglow flashes.
Percyzn Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 get hold of Kurt through Dragon Peaks and do the helibiking trip. Thats top draw!
Frosty08 Posted January 5, 2017 Posted January 5, 2017 Kirk from Rockslide MTB tours and my Dad have just started the Cathkin MTB club up there. You can get info about the trails on their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Cathkinmtb/. Or download the app 'MySos' and go to the hotel or visit 'The Great Outoors' shop at Cedarwood super market (opposite Champagne golf resort) and ask to get the routes added to the app. There are a couple out rides that are marked and on the app. You can also join the group rides from Mountain Splendour, or get hold of Kirk from Rockslide MTB tours and he does heli biking, taxi shuttles and guided rides in the area.

Frosty08 Posted January 30, 2017 Posted January 30, 2017 keen to try this some time, but will be down there to spend some quality time with my wife and little one... this'll take a bit long Give Kirk a shout when you keen to do it, its definitely worth another trip to the berg for
