Hennops MTB Trail’s unique features are the Hennops river flowing through a valley bordered by mountain ranges to the north and the south. This gives our  single track purpose built mountain bike trail a variety of terrain, some steep climbs and descents, lots of natural obstacles and great views to enjoy.

The trail is 42km in total (Elevation gain 500m) and is made up of 6 sections with shortcut options after each sections to make up your own distance.

• Safari (6 km / Elevation gain 100m)

Entering the game fenced 4×4 park. Some steady climbs and downhill single track to negotiate whilst you can keep an eye out for Zebra, Impala, Blouwildebees, and Kudu. In this section the MTB trail crosses the hiking and 4×4 trails on a few occasions

• Sani (6.4km/ Elevation gain 138m)

The name says it all! If you like mountain climbing – this is the one!

• Dragon (4.5km / Elevation gain 80m)

Dragon is fast flowing, twisting and turning. You will meet 4 witches (bridges) at the bottom of the valley.

• Snake (4km/ Elevation gain 54m)

This is a twisting mountain single track with many switchbacks. Come test your technical skills here, but be careful as the name suggests the Snake can bite!
