The trail

Cape Town's best-loved singletrack network, winding through pine plantations and fynbos on the eastern slopes of the Constantiaberg. Tokai offers everything from mellow family loops along the greenbelt to proper technical climbs and flowing descents with views over False Bay. The trails drain well after winter rain and ride fast and dry through summer.

The network is managed in partnership with SANParks — a valid activity permit is required and can be bought at the gate or online. Watch for hikers and horses on the lower shared paths.

Greenbelt Loop is perfect for my kids, and coffee at the start is a bonus.

Rode the Vasbyt Climb on Saturday — the new line through the pines is fantastic. Worth the grind up.

Agreed — and it links nicely onto the upper contour path if you want more.
