Saasveld Singletrack 20km
The Saasveld 20km route extends the shorter 10km loop into the more technical and demanding sections of the indigenous bush network. More significant elevation change, technical singletrack sections and a longer sustained effort make this the advanced option at this informal but popular midlands riding area.
What to Expect
Technical singletrack on advanced terrain through indigenous KZN bush with more significant elevation change than the 10km loop. The upper sections of the trail network access more demanding terrain with better views across the midlands. Download GPX from Trailforks before visiting — waymarking is informal.
Getting There
Saasveld between Howick and Pietermaritzburg. GPS reference: -29.5023, 30.1878.
