Mountain bike & trail running at Delheim in Simonsberg Conservancy

We know you Wine Fans are the outdoorsy types. Running and cycling to build in space for a couple of extra calories of sugary Chenin. Yeah yeah. We know :)

So this popped up and we thought we should tell you. Enjoy!

The annual and always popular Delheim MTB Day and Trail Run will take place on the 23rd and 24th of November at this beautiful Stellenbosch wine farm, which boasts picturesque views of Cape Town. The Simonsberg Conservancy will also raise funds through the event.

Riders can choose from a 7km or 12km route. Mountain bikers seeking more of a challenge can attempt the 12km lap twice as it has some good climbing and single-track sections. Outdoor enthusiasts will love the fantastic trails in the Simonsberg conservancy and it is also the launch of the new trail system.

Running enthusiasts have the option of the 7km and 12km routes and must pre-enter as there are a limited amount of entries available.
