and I, I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference” The Road Not Taken, by Sir Robert Frost.

The winding 13km’s of well-maintained trails designed by South Africa’s leading MTB course designer and trail builder, Hylton Turvey, offer a world of adventure and cater for cycling enthusiast of all ability. The International Mountain Bike Association Trail Grading System or IMBA is used to designate the trail difficulty at the Cycle Lab Bike Park. At the entrance of each trial, a numerical value designates the difficulty of each trail with one being the easiest and five being the most difficult. Green One, the easiest trail and Black Five, the most difficult. All the trails, begin and end on the bi-directional perimeter road, which offers 4kms of non-technical riding and means you can take a spin with the kids or warm up the legs before hitting the trails.
