MariusL Posted May 5, 2010 Share WOW - that looks epic... Where do the trails start to get up there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MintSauce Posted May 5, 2010 Share Table Mountain is a maze of trails. You can start from anywhere on the mountain but you need to know where you're going to get there. It's not marked. Easiest directions is take Tafelberg Rd, pass the cable car and keep going....tar eventually becomes gravel and the road basically leads to the Blockhouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MintSauce Posted May 7, 2010 Share Cool pics. Montague Pass is such a cool ride. Can't believe I'd say that about a gravel road climb, but really loved riding it a while ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWM1 Posted May 7, 2010 Share From the top of the Rooiberg Pass - Calitzdorp,at last weekend's Klein Karoo Klassiek. The 16km climb was worth it! SWM12010-05-07 02:39:58 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe I'd say that about a gravel road climb' date=' but really loved riding it a while ago.[/quote'] I rode that from Wilderness, through George then at the bottom I asked for directions to Knysna... It was further than it looked on the map. Ended up with a 175km ride, did most of the Karoo to coast alone and a very pissed off wife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
