Grade B/C - 240km/9 days (average 27km/cycling day). Support vehicles with trailers follow the route in Mpumalanga. This allows flexibility in how much cycling you wish to do and enables support to be provided on steep sections ensuring cycling is either relatively flat or downhill, though some uphill sections are inevitable. Expect some exhilarating descents from high passes. Cycling in the reserves is a mixture of road and rough tracks, varying from 2 to 4 hours in duration. Cycling amongst game in Kruger NP is a safe activity sanctioned by the park authorities and we are accompanied by armed guides as a precaution.

Introduction

Formerly Eastern Transvaal, the province of Mpumalanga is home to some of the most spectacular scenery in Southern Africa. We explore the Great Escarpment by bike and enjoy the stunning views of the northern Drakensburg with our vehicles in support, allowing you to cycle as much or as little as you wish and to provide optional back up on the steeper sections. In Kruger National Park we are privileged to be able to cycle among the game of South Africa's pre-eminent reserve, an activity that has only recently been introduced. We end in the beautiful surroundings of Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary in the tiny kingdom of Swaziland.
