Where Journeys Begin

An MTB, trail running and hiking heaven, awaits outdoor enthusiasts at Beloftebos Trails in the Overberg’s Stanford Valley. The professionally designed MTB trails on the Beloftebos Farm, weave their way across rivers, through forests, along single dirt tracks, across gravel roads and up steep ascents. The seasoned mountain biker, trail runner and hiker can test themselves on more technical routes, whilst others can embark on a more leisurely journey along shorter Beloftebos Trails. Guided tractor tours along the Beloftebos Trails through the Floral Kingdom, take you to the very top of the Akkedisberg with its panoramic views of the Overberg’s rolling hills and the Hermanus Lagoon. For those who want to enjoy the country experience for more than a day, Beloftebos Trails can arrange accommodation and orientation to other exciting adventures and activities in the area.
