Mountain Bike Holiday in South Africa
For any adventurer, Africa must be experienced. We all have our mixed, pre-conceived notions of Africa; put these aside. What awaits you is a fantastic place with diverse and beautiful, awe-inspiring landscapes combined with a relatively harmonious cultural diversity…and the wildlife! Live the pages of National Geographic for yourself: see animals, birds and flowers that you have only imagined and watch sunsets like you’ve never seen. Explore an ancient land that was inhabited by the earliest Homo sapiens. Most visitors experience the African safari via the seat of a truck or behind a protected compound. With Big Mountain you’ll experience and observe Africa on its own terms, riding your mountain bike and walking on million-year old elephant paths.
The Rhythm of Africa: Cross-Country Mountain Biking
Join us on this small-group trip of a lifetime where we'll be hosted by the most experienced local guides, wildlife-tracking specialists from Botswana and South Africa. On this adventure our bikes, feet and Land Rovers will allow us to get closer to the natural wonders of this land including lion, hyena, leopard, giraffe, zebra and much more. This trip is not a race, but a true adventure.
Nights are spent in hotels, remote luxury lodges and luxury camping where we sleep under the stars and take turns on night watch, keeping the fire stoked and listening to the night sounds of nocturnal life in an ancient land. Join us for an experience that you will never forget. Each departure is limited to 6 participants.
