The Misty Mountain Yellow Route is a 14km intermediate circuit offering an alternative loop to the blue route — different fynbos sections, forest transitions and plateau views combine in a route designed for riders who want variety after completing the green and blue options. At 14km it sits comfortably between the green and blue in terms of distance and challenge.

What to Expect

Fynbos singletrack on moderately varied plateau terrain. The yellow route accesses sections of the reserve not covered by the other trails, adding botanical and scenic variety to a multi-day riding visit. Intermediate fitness and basic singletrack skills are appropriate.

Getting There

Misty Mountain Reserve on the R102 near Thornhill. GPS: -33.8823, 25.3834.
