MTB routes around Komatiepoort

[hssfindi]

Hello I will be at Ngwenya Lodge from 25/04 to 01/04 an need to do a bit of training. I have done the loop from Ngwenya to Komatiepoort and then along the train tracks to Marloth Parks dirt road and then through Marloth back to Ngwenya

 

Can anyone suggest any other routes with more hills, maybe south of the N4

 

What is the general status on the safety of MTB riders in this area?

 

Thanks

Hi hssfindi,

 

MTB Is pretty safe around these Parts. The dangerous Parts you have already rode are the ones next to the train tracks,   

We haven't got much Hills, but i can take to some Hilly Parts on the the Lebombo Mountains, where you def need some Climbing legs, or if you up to it, we can go climb 2000m in the Kaalrug Mountains in Malelane. 

But give me a shout when you around here, will gladly show some route.

Try Dirk Lourens, Hectorspruit.  He's running some trails.  Lexx got me in contact two weeks ago.

 

edit: I see Lexx has answered

There is a awesome route in Hectorspruit as well.

Really Sorry about that Grant. Stupid rain... But at least you got to ride next to a lion...

Hi Lexx
