iSimangaliso Wetland Park MTB
The route took 280 riders from mountain to sea and across eight eco-systems. Among the myriad of features that turned the MTB into a one-of-a-kind event were the animal sightings, plant and bird species that peppered each day’s ride – with the sighting of breaching whales on the final day an undisputed highlight for the happily exhausted riders.
The ride raised just over a quarter of a million rand towards one of iSimangaliso’s conservation goals this year – the re-introduction of eland into the Park. Eland are the last of the historically occurring species to be re-introduced into this World Heritage Site.
Please keep in mind the dates for next year's iSimangaliso MTB 4 Day - 20 to23 August 2015. It's a wonderful opportunity for all levels of cyclists, and an eco-adventure sport and travel experience through a World Heritage Site at its very best.
