AWOL Tours Table Mountain Biking Tour

AWOL Tours offers a Table Mountain Biking Tour. The 27km mountain bike ride starts from the lower cable car station and follows the tar road past Table Mountain towards Devil's Peak. Ride up to the King's Block House on winding gravel roads. This climb is well worth the effort as you have views of both Table Bay and False Bay. A steep, technical downhill leads bikers to the singletrails at UCT/Rhodes Memorial. Then bikers tackle the undulating ride back up to Tafelberg Road. Alternatively, an option for extremely fit mountain bikers who have previous technical riding experience can opt to do a longer ride starting from the Waterfront with hectic climbs up Signal Hill and onto the trails along the lower slopes of Table Mountain to Rhodes Memorial. Bikers will then ride up to the block house, down to Deer Park, and back to the Waterfront through the city. This route follows the 'Cape Epic' Prologue route and is described as challenging due to the steep climbs and loose gravel roads. Expect to climb 600 to 100 meters in under 30km.
