      Lochs Hoek Farm for all has a number of trails, green, blue and red.

      The climbs are tough with several switchbacks and the descents are fairly technical.

      As with all trails, ride within your ability. If you feel out of your depth rather or not sure rather get off and walk.

      The climbs and descents are in the first 10-15km and can be skipped if you feel that you are not up the challange or if you just want an easy ride in the veld.

      The rest of the trails are on open single track and suitable for all skill levels.
