MTB routes and trails in Grootbrak area

[cliff_ross]

Are there any worthwhile mtb routes or trails in the Grootbrak Glentana and Kleinbrak area between MosselBay and George?

 

Don't always feel like the "trek" to George just for a ride after work..

Hi Cliff

 

I rode at Klipheuwel quite a while ago, it wasn't great but its not that bad.

As it is after work it depends on how long you want to stay out for. Here is a map that will give you some idea.

One or two places that show dirt have now been tarred. And the road past Botlierskop has been closed. There are some very nice routes .

Blokman, yes those are basically the routes we ride mtb on in Groot Brakrivier. One can also do the Jonkersberg mountain with a choice once one is on the contours of either turning right heading towards George or coming down via Arendsrus or when turning left and heading towards Friemersheim, can also do a reverse ride through Leeukloof, that mother of a climb made famous in the Attakwas MTB race.

Then one can also go from Groot Brak towards Brandwag, then a loop past the Hartebeeskuildam wall, then turn back and come back turning left once you reach the tar road (Mosselbay-Oudtshoorn road) the way one went in or turn right heading towards Hartenbos, just before the N2 turn left onto the R102 and head back to Groot Brak via Klein Brak.

Bummer. Dit sou die vrou happy hou as ek en my seuntjie op die trails gaan rondspeel het. Dalk maak hulle weer in die seisoen oop

Bel miskien net om seker te maak, daar is wel n ander eet plekkie ook daar, maar ek weet nie presies wat hul spyskaart behels en of dit dalk net vir wegneem etes is nie. Anders bel die Trail park en vind net by Suzette uit. Edited September 18, 2020 by BSG
