A 511 km loop
Open this ride in the planner →
Leave the city behind and spend the day on roads with texture. This road trip is shaped as a ride, not as a shortcut: leave the start cleanly, use the first checkpoint for fuel and weather discipline, then let the middle 204 km be the part you remember. The best part sits around Cederberg Mountain Weekend scenic road, Cederberg Mountain Weekend high point, Cederberg Mountain Weekend photo pull-off, while Cederberg Mountain Weekend fuel gate and Cederberg Mountain Weekend food stop keep the day practical instead of turning it into a fuel hunt. Check the selected map before departure: scenic sections, transfer sections, speed/control reminders, risk points and the GPX checkpoint order are deliberately visible so the route is understandable before the engine starts. Ride it early if the area is popular, keep the photo stops legal, and shorten the route if weather, daylight or energy stops agreeing with the plan.
