Prepare for one of South Africa’s most iconic MTB challenges the right way — with a dedicated training weekend in the heart of the Mpumalanga Lowveld.
Wines2Whales Training Weekend
Trade the winelands for the Lowveld — and arrive at the Wines2Whales start line ready for every kilometre. The Absa Cape Epic Series’ Wines2Whales is a three-day MTB stage race winding through the spectacular Hemel-en-Aarde Valley and Overberg region of the Western Cape, finishing at Hermanus on the whale coast. It’s a stunning event, and one that rewards riders who show up well-prepared.
This dedicated training weekend at White River Trails gives you exactly that — structured, purposeful riding in a world-class Lowveld setting, with the guidance, support, and warm hospitality to make your prep count. Get your legs strong, your skills sharp, and your confidence race-ready before you hit the Western Cape.
