Mankele Orange Route
Mankele’s Orange Route is the advanced tier at this exceptional venue — 30km of technical singletrack with rocky sections, sustained climbing and the full challenge of the Escarpment’s more demanding terrain. The orange route is where Mankele’s world-class trail-building craft is most evident: technical features are purposeful, the flow is sustained even on challenging terrain and the Escarpment bush setting remains beautiful throughout.
What to Expect
Technical singletrack on advanced terrain with rocky sections and significant elevation change. Expert trail-building quality throughout — the orange route rewards skilled riders with a genuinely satisfying advanced experience. The Escarpment views from the upper sections are exceptional on clear days.
