SaveWith these many MTB trails to our disposal we can most certainly be the Meca of MTB in Africa....if not the world, make no mistake, we are not blind to our faults and the fact that we are a few decades behind with our marketing, but the fact remain we have awesome mountains with the best trails around. Plenty of passionate trail associations all keen on maintaining and developing our infrastructure. Numerous guest houses from Backpackers to 5 star accommodation as well as the very popular and super well known local campsite
