      Thaba Trails Mountain Bike Park offers one of the best trail networks for mountain biking and trail running in Gauteng. The trails are well marked, with colour coded loops for different skill levels.

      Real Trails for Real Fanatics

      Yellow: Non technical; for beginners. Only 5 km but in a beautiful Tree lined area.

      Orange: A short version of the Green/Blue with most of the hills taken out. A lovely trail for a short effort and the difficulty depends on you. Suitable for most riders ...beginner and intermediate...and those NOT SO FIT..YET.

      Green/Blue: Some technical; for intermediate riders. The main trail used the most. Offering a safe and challenging ride of 25 km. There is something for everyone

      Blue: Very technical. Not recommended for in-experienced riders. On request of the riders a rough trail with serious obstacles and rock faces...nothing too technical to walk.

      Kiosk open on weekends - trails open from 06h30 to 17h30 last rider in.
