Due to the proximity of the mountains, Lourensford offers plenty of climbing and downhill options. Come and enjoy a wide variety of new single tracks. E-Bikes are allowed for all three entry options.
The Lourensford Classic is a proper MTB challenge. The route covers most of the higher gravel roads on the farm, with five long climbs and plenty of flowing single track downhills. You need to be fit and MTB skilled to take on the Classic. Average riding time is 4 hrs.
The Lourensford Maxi is a great ride, similar to a Houwhoek Tour stage. It has one steep climb up to the second contour road, but from there it's a nice blend of gravel, single tracks and contour roads. Average riding time is 3 hrs.
The Lourensford Light is a novice ride with no single tracks. Average riding time is 1.5 hrs.
