Event Name: 7Passes MTB 2025
When: 04/01/2025
Where: Wilderness (Open Field), Western Cape
Category: Mountain Bike

The “7Passes MTB”, powered by Knysna Toyota is back! It’s happening on the 4th of January 2025.

This route offers the perfect opportunity for gravel-bikers to take on the 29ers. E-bikers are also welcome on this non-technical route.

The open grass area, directly in front of the Wilderness Hotel will be host to the start venue. Batch starts from 07H00 just before late registration between 06H00 and 07H00. There will be registration Friday evening, 3 January 16H00 to 17H30 in George at Trail Kiosk. 

7Passes MTB also offers a shorter route for younger or not so fit riders who still want to be part of the action! Leeuwenbosch Dairies will once again support the 38km event which starts on Saturday morning from the Highlands Cash Store in the humble little village of Karatara. The start time for the shorter route is 09H30.

Haven't done this event before, but as far as the route goes it's some of the best riding in the Garden Route. Here's a Strava link for the 76km and some personal pics from along the route.

I'm doing this ride this weekend. Are there places to stop along the way to refill bottles if needed?

Such beautiful scenery

There is the Highland convenience store just outside of Karatara (where the 38km starts), and Portland mini mart later on the route
