A winding dirt trail traverses a sloped area in a forest, surrounded by tall, thin trees that have been partially scorched. The sun is low in the sky, casting warm light through the branches. Small patches of green ferns and shrubs grow alongside the path, which leads further into the woods. A person in red can be seen in the distance, adding a sense of scale to the natural landscape. Jonkershoek mountain bike trail.

Mountain Biking Jonkershoek

*****   Add a review
#3 of 79 mountain bike trails in South Africa
#817 in the world

A network of purpose built single track trails connected by forestry contour
paths. Favourite sections include the Canary Path , 3 levels of single track
zig zagging down the mountain. Fire Trail on the right hand side of the
valley if you face the mountains from the entrance gate has some fast
flowing switch backs and awesome small jumps. Eliatti Path is also a nice
option if connected with some of the other smaller trails.
