SaveCome and ride your bike in Greyton, the jewel of the Overberg
Located in the heart of the Overberg in the Western Cape, South Africa, 130km from Cape Town, Greyton is singletrack heaven!
Explore our extensive mountain bike trails. Pick a trail that suits you and ride with your friends and family and experience pristine nature. There are a couple of club rides each week - always great to ride with locals. All trails begin and end at our Trailhead, The Hub & Spoke, at 20 DS Botha St, Greyton (marked on the map with the red "S" icon for Shop).
Greyton's MTB trails range from Easy to Intermediate, Difficult and Very Difficult. Our arrow boards display the IMBA symbols for trail grading. Together with this, we use colour arrows for simplicity:
Green Arrow - Easy
Blue Arrow - Intermediate
Red Arrow - Difficult
Black Arrow - Very Difficult
Greyton also has a true bounty of Gravel Grinders. We have plotted several of our favourite Gravel Roads and Loops. A Loop simply means a route that starts and finishes in Greyton. All of the Gravel Loops are mapped and listed in ride area Greyton Gravel Routes.
Join us at our Trailhead, The Hub & Spoke, every Wednesday at 5pm for the Potter's Beer Blitz and to meet our club members!
