The 3rd leg of the Nissan TrailSeeker Western Cape series continues on the 10th of October, hitting the small town of Hermanus during the end of the Whale festival. The series showcases the best mountain biking trails that the Cape has to offer.
Over the last two to three years a whole mountain biking revolution has taken the little town by storm. Jan van Schalkwyk and Deon Ferreira have been building trails that are reshaping the landscape around Hermanus, making it a mountain biking playground that’s second to none. Join us, when we explore the trails around Hermanus in the Hemel & Aarde Valley.
The series is targeted at the young, the novice and the family but also for the experienced rider. The routes are aimed to be fun and friendly, leaving the more challenging bits for the long distance, catering for those looking to get into mountain biking as a sport, the weekend riders and the family conscious.
With great TV coverage, good prize money with provincial points up for grabs, the serious riders are drawn in to compete into a festival of mountain biking.
