About the event

Muratie Trails Marathon MTB & Run
Muratie Trails Marathon – Sunday, 5 October 2025

Dirtopia Trails at Muratie Wine Estate are renowned for their flowing singletrack — and this Spring trail users are invited to explore beyond the usual borders at the Muratie Trails Marathon.
On 5 October, take on an unforgettable trail challenge through private land, designed by trail-building godfather Meurant Botha, and enjoy the unique charm of one of South Africa’s oldest wine farms.

🔐 Route Info
This route is a once-off opportunity:
Over 50% of the singletrack is normally closed to the public.
No maps will be released beforehand, and no access to the route is permitted prior to the event.
Trust us: this is one you’ll never forget.
Built with love (and decades of experience) by Meurant Botha, this event is about more than just fitness — it's a celebration of land, wine, and the trails community.
