DM2022 Posted November 16, 2022 Share Event Name: Berg & Bush DescentWhen: 16/06/2023 - 18/06/2023Where: Hambrook, KwaZulu-NatalCategory: Mountain BikeThe Berg & Descent is the iconic three-day stage race in Winterton, KZN, where you start in the Free State and finish in KwaZulu-Natal. Riders start at Windmill Farm on the top of Oliviershoek Pass and make their way along the Escarpment before dropping into KZN on some of the most beautiful twisting and turning trails in South Africa. The Drakensberg scenery, with the mountain often snow-capped, only adds to the drama. Riders finish Day 1 at the Em'seni Race Village near Winterton on the banks of the Tugela and start and finish the next two days from the same location. Highlights include unique bushveld trails, lovingly crafted by the owner-organisers, and the famous climb up Spioenkop followed by the more famous descent down Spioenkop. Go to Event Page.

Blue Monster Posted November 24, 2022 Share They are clever to have the Descent over a long weekend. I can now do the 3 day solo. Accommodation booked & entered. DieselnDust, Kylie, Danger Dassie and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted November 24, 2022 Share I'm having a serious look at this. Furiously scribbling amounts on a piece of paper to see if I can squeeze it out of my tight budget. DM2022 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
