Trails near Blouberg/Flamingo Vlei on holiday

Hey to the Capetonians,

 

I'm flying down to CT from Durbs for New years and figured I'd bring my bike to hit some local trails. Staying in Flamingo Vlei from 28 Dec til 2 Jan.

 

Which are the best riding spots nearby that one can cycle to? Not renting a car so if I can get there by bike it will be a heck of a lot easier than dismantling the bike to fit in an Uber.

I enjoy loads of single track, fast and flowing, reasonably technical.

 

Are there any group rides happening around then? Or anyone nearby keen on a riding buddy?

 

????

Contermanskloof and Hoogekraal.

Search for the Tygerberg MTB website.

 

Just be careful of riding your bike there past Du Noon. Or rather just don't.

Thanks Philip.

 

Any suggestion of an alternate route to get there or is it just a matter of having to catch an uber?

Blouberg road, koeberg rd, at Caltex go over N7 then left at circle past Richwood and Burgendy and then you have two routes to choose from to get to trail. Over tiekie(straight on the road) or left at Contermanskloof road to Hoogekraal
