There are
many mountain biking options on the Cape West Coast
and riding
conditions are generally great for cycling.
Langebaan itself has a few options like the many
little tracks that criss-cross through the town. Then
there is the West Coast National Park mountain bike
trail, with a choice of an easy 13km or more difficult
17km route. Riding in the national park is one of the
things to do in Langebaan, it is a big favourite with
the locals. Spend a morning riding down to Geelbek and
back. Or if you are more adventurous take a day pack
and ride out to Kraalbaai and the sea at Tsaarsbank on
the western side of the park.
The West Coast Fossil Park
also has a marked mountain bike trail which is perfect
for beginners and the family. With a choice of 4
routes to choose from, there is something for
everyone. Saldanha nature reserve is another great
place to ride, this protected area inside the military
grounds is open to the public and has some great easy
riding. For the more adventurous, Jacobsbaai between
Saldanha and Vredenburg has some great little tracks
and paths to explore along the coast line. Lastly
further up the coast Paternoster has the Columbine
nature reserve right there with a good few kilometers
worth cruising.
