The Route 66 Experience isn’t just for riders. Lace up your trail shoes and join us on Saturday for a morning on the legendary Magalies trails.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best or just out for a fresh-air adventure, this one’s for you.
Choose from 5 km, 10 km, or 15 km routes that wind through rolling hills, shaded valleys, and sweeping views of the Magaliesberg.
Each route offers a balance of challenge and reward — run it hard, or walk it easy.
Tough enough to make you earn that medal.
Beautiful enough to remind you why you love the outdoors.
Route Maps will be released in Feb 2026
