thebob Posted May 15, 2021 Share Wolwespruit for more of a "bike park" experience with berms, jumps and singletrack. Buffelsdrift for longer distances with some good tech challenges Thaba Trails for rocky tech and climbing RJClegg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jewbacca Posted May 16, 2021 Share After reading this thread I still have no idea where I would go for 'more challenging' trails in Gauteng other than Hartees...... Almost every single trail mentioned has been deemed both technical and not. Bikes are rad like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenGraham Posted May 16, 2021 Share Something to be aware of with Hennops is it starts out a bit boring. You have about 12km (or was it 16, I can't remember) of generally uphill not particularly interesting xc stuff to get through. But once you get to the good stuff it really is nice. I wouldn't describe is as super demanding but it is really good. I'd take it over Van Gaalens for riding on that side of things tbh. One good thing about it is there is never really any gravel grind stuff. It's pretty much all single track which is quite something when you're used to a few gravel grind road sections to connect the good stuff. I hope Hennops keeps expanding as they have a good thing going and their trail builder/s seem to know what they're doing. I'm still sad that Hakahana seems to have closed down completely as I loved the trails there. RJClegg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have some stuff that looks like this. Honestly Sabie and Mankele are both amazing. I need to go back. You earn your turns though. There are no free lunches on that side of the world.
