Ride the Rhenoster

What is Ride the Rhenoster?

Established in 2008 as a means to raise funds for conservation and showcase the natural beauty of the region, Ride the Rhenoster is a one day trail ride through the Crocodile River Reserve, a protected area on the doorstep of Joburg and Tshwane.

Once a year, the landowners in the Crocodile River Reserve open up their properties for you to take a scenic MTB ride through the beautiful landscapes and views just 20 minutes from Fourways.

Riders are able to discover the beauty of the reserve and the many secrets it hides, from the mystery of ladybird castle to the old silver mine, snake through beautiful single track and quiet district roads and discover the history of Koppie Alleen.

See for yourself

It is not a race for everyone, to some, it is about the journey.

Riders will be able to follow a predetermined route with multiple feature stops along the way. Each feature stop includes a guide who will share the stories of the land and its features with you. Joining the ride ensures your contribution to conserving this precious landscape with its rare and special fauna and flora.

Ride the Rhenoster is open only once a year to a small field of 300 Riders. The 40km route is a diverse technical trail. The 20km, although still challenging, has been set up with novice riders in mind. We welcome the use of E-bikes but suggest only experienced e-bike riders take on the 40km route.
