TOMMY WAGNER on tour | 10 days tour | CAPE TOWN - Cederberg - Karoo - CAPE TOWN |
10 days packed with adventurous riding, exploring the gravel backroads of the Cederberg and less travelled mountain passes.
Tommy Wagner on tour with UpSouth Adventures, the most adventurous tour in terms of gravel road riding and interesting accommodation spots. It includes the most beautiful, backroads and mountain passes of the Karoo and at some stages a bit more challenging than the standard jeep track. The route is designed to explore most of the exciting and breathtaking dirt road passes the Cape has on offer.
We start the trip off by exploring the Cape Peninsula, including Chapman's Peak Drive and Cape of Good Hope. We ride through the famous Cape Winelands of the Western Cape and then make our way north, along the backroads of the Cederberg Mountain, then east into the semi-desert areas of the Tankwa Karoo, where the real beauty of this trip lies… the single-lane dirt roads, carving through the valleys, mountain passes and open plains.
We travel over the Swartberg, then stay over at a Private Game Reserve. Before we make our way back to town, we ride to the most Southern Tip of Africa and then along the famous Gordon’s bay coastal road.
From open roads in semi-arid desert areas, to twisty roads along the fertile coast, you experience it all. Magnificent views and interesting roads, combined with motorcycling.. what more do you need?!
