About this Route

The full Magaliesberg cycling classic loop from Pretoria or Joburg — a 130 km epic combining the R512, Magaliesberg Pass (Olifantsnek), the valley floor, and return via Schoemansville and Hartbeespoort. Three significant mountain pass climbs and the iconic Hartbeespoort Dam descent make this one of Gauteng's most complete road cycling challenges. A full-day effort requiring strong legs and good navigation.
