Greyton MTB

Join us on 18 April 2026 for a technically rewarding race that takes mountain biking back to its true roots. Set on a private farm just outside Greyton, this is pure, old-school riding at its best.

Expect at least 60% singletrack, flowing and challenging in equal measure, winding through pristine terrain and climbing high into the Riviersonderend Mountains. The effort is worth it — the views from the top are nothing short of spectacular.

Choose your challenge:

  • 60 km with 1 500 m of elevation

  • 40 km with 1 000 m of elevation

If you love real trails, technical riding, and big mountain scenery, this is a race you won’t want to miss.

Book Your Spot Early!
Greyton is a highly sought-after destination, and accommodation books out fast. To avoid missing out, we strongly recommend securing your stay as early as possible. Whether you’re after a cosy guesthouse, a charming B&B, or a comfortable self-catering option, booking ahead will ensure you’re perfectly set for an unforgettable weekend of mountain biking.
