Go through the thread, there's quite a few routes posted if you'd like to load them onto your GPS (if it's a garmin)

Dumb question: is there a map with all the trails? I have ridden there a few times but would love a map of the trails.

They did have one, but its worthless. You really need to ride with someone that knows the place or look at other people's garmin files. Also have gotten lost many time when trying out a new trail, but its part of the fun.

Sheesh this place looks great - cant wait to try it out.

 

Out of interest, how long does it take to get there? 1 hour from Sandton? Do people just ride in the morning or do they make a day of it?
