Although not Blydefontein's shortest route, the Blydefontein Green Route is seen as the easiest mountain biking route on the farm. The Green Route skips the rocky trails around "Klein & Groot Oppermanskop", but still gets it share of elevation on route to Langberg. Enjoy some flowy single tracks, a breath-taking view on the "Groenberg" trail & some machine-groomed trails to test your speed. You can also be on the lookout for kudus, cattle, sheep, baboons & ribbokke.
