Today I had the pleasure of checking out a new riding venue in my local area. Misty Valley Lodge sits at just over 2000m altitude and offers great riding potential. At the moment, their beginner loop is not quite complete yet but already it offers some fun singletrack with a few technical sections and wooden bridges along the way. There's plenty of game to see out on the plains too which adds to the experience. This place is all about sweeping views and high altitude riding and there are plans to develop it into a real mountain biking destination - something to which it's well suited. (More trails are in the works and they also offer guided weekend MTB packages and other activities for the whole family - www.mistyvalleylodge.co.za)
