Just got back from an epic trip to do the High 5 Challenge - all I can say is wow, what a trip. We did all these passes: Lundins Nek, Jouberts Pass, Carlisleshoekspruit Pass, Volunteershoek (Wartrail), Tiffindell-Tenahead Traverse, Naudes Nek and Ben MacDhui Pass. We based ourselves at Rhodes, what a stunning town and a fantastic country hotel with really great food. It was a lot of riding, 1,200km on the bike and another 800km in the vehicle, I trailered the bike down to Fouriesburg. Weather was great, except on the way back from Lady Grey, we hit a massive storm, with hail and gale force winds, and did the last 100km in the storm, the dark and pothole riddled roads - made for some nerve wrecking moments. Definitely one for the memory bank

That looks amazing, will probably look into doing the same next year. Any chance you've got a route file, please?

Nope, Mike had keys as he knows the owner of Tiffendell.

I tracked all 3 days, I'll get the GPX files off of my Garmin and share them.

Did my last bike trip to that region in 2019 before I took a break from biking. I need to go back!
