Single Track - Blue Trail

Our singletrack is located behind the hospital on the mountainside of Montagu South. There is a park and ride behind the Montagu High School and blue arrows indicate the way.  Enter the Sugargum forest and enjoy the beauty of this area while exploring Little Red Riding Hood, M+K and Big Rock trails. Exit the forest on a flowery downhill and be cautious before you cross the bridge. Follow the Blue arrows over the beautiful vast Karoo landscape. A pump track awaits before you exit the trails. Pump track, not your thing? There is an easier exit should you choose.
