Heritage Experience

01 May – 04 May 2025 Days, 4 Nights
Estimated cost: R5 500 – 6 500 per person

We visit Anglo-Boer, Boer-Zulu, and Zulu-Anglo sites such as Utrecht, Talana, Blood River (Dundee), Dingane’s Kraal and Piet Retief’s gravesite.

The group rides tar on multiple twisty roads, through Nkandla Forest where we stop for awesome vistas, and into the Tugela Valley. We cross the Tugela River, swim in a hot spring, ride a magnificent pass to Kranskop, and overnight at an 103-year-old hotel. In Pietermaritzburg, we visit the Church of the Covenant (Geloftekerk). We travel through the Natal Midlands and experience the Drakensberg as we ride to our last evening’s accommodation.

We ride 20% on roads farmers use daily and 80% on tar roads.
