Welcome to the 2024 edition of the most popular and prestigious mountain bike race in Gauteng - The Cradle Mountain Trophy, and now it’s a Gravel Event for the cyclists.

Founded in 2010, this mountain biking event always promises to be an exhilarating experience, and it takes place on Saturday the 26th of October 2024.

You may have noticed that we have changed the format slightly, and now we are offering a 1-Day version.

And this year, we are changing things up a bit and all routes will now be Gravel Routes.

95km, 55km and 38km will be on offer

This is without a doubt the most popular, engaging and spectacular and fun event in and around Gauteng.


Plus, we also have a stunning offering of various Trail Running/ Walking options from 5km, 10km & 16km. This will take place on Saturday the 26th of October.

Special Announcement: All children aged 7 and under can enter on the day at no cost for the 5km
