Kolsvlei MTB & Trail Run Trails
Take up the 100km Challenge or joins us for a fun-filled day with the family competing in one of the shorter distances at the Kolsvlei Trail Park just outside of Piketberg.
You will be challenged to complete 4 grueling laps around the Kolsvlei Trails that will span over 100 kilometers with a total elevation profile of 1550m in the 100KM MTB EXTREME CHALLENGE!
Not sure if you can complete the 100km in the MTB Extreme Challenge, why not try? Enter for the Extreme Challenge to see if you can complete 2 or 3 laps to earn your 50km or 75km Kolsvlei MTB medal. You might even feel ready and be motivated by your supporters and spectators to complete the final loop that will take you to the ultimate reward - the Kolsvlei MTB 100km medal.
You can also enter as a team of 4 riders and compete in the 100KM MTB RELAY CHALLENGE? Team members will each have the opportunity to complete a 25km lap consecutively. Each lap on the Kolsvlei trail has an elevation profile of 388 meters! Teams will be introduced before the race start – so please pick a fun team name for the day and come kitted in your favourite corporate colours.
