2024 will be the first edition of the Berg 50!

 

After many requests, we have brought you the Berg 50. This event will start and finish at Moorcroft Manor (the finish of the 100km race).

This route is primarily gravel roads with tiny sections of tar as you leave and return to Himeville village. The route is designed for those wanting a challenge and wanting to push themselves from a 30/40km ride to a 50km ride. It is also for those who might need to downgrade from the 100km!!!!!

This route has sublime views of the Drakensberg while you meander through farmlands and plantations.
