ROUTE PROFILE

Mountain Bike – 48km

Elevation – 1850m
Route designer Meurant Botha wears many hats (!), so you can call him what you like from bearded long grey hair mountain biker to race director, Founder of Dirtopia & Amarider, well-known trail builder of twenty-five years and of course a lover of the Simonsberg valley and its wines!
Dirtopia’s partnership with Muratie has a history – just like the old-charm feel on the ‘werf’ of one of the oldest wine farms in South Africa. The warm hospitality of Muratie and the Melck family love of nature, have welcomed trail users on their land and there is no better way to experience this than at the Muratie Mountain Series event. The trail system is organically funded and therefor mountain bikers taking part will support trail building and maintenance.
This time only one route is on offer: a 48km singletrack experience for intermediate riders only. We do not need to describe it in detail. All you need to know is that it is a beautiful ride that you can feel privileged to take part in and will remember for many years to come…

This will take place at Dirtopia Trail Centre on Muratie Wine Estate near Stellenbosch at the following times:
Saturday 10h00 to 13h00
