More Than a Race... A Weekend Away

Imagine arriving in the Natal Midlands on a Friday afternoon.

The fire is already burning…

Friends are gathering.

That evening, a Welcome Braai eases you into the weekend getaway.

Tomorrow, you’ll ride or run through some of South Africa’s most spectacular countryside.

On Sunday, you’ll do it all again before heading home with tired legs, great stories and memories that will last long after the weekend is over.

There are races.

There are weekends away.

And then there is a combination of the two that leaves you with experiences you’ll remember for years to come.

Welcome to The Midlands Adventure, presented by Stellantis South Africa, the presenters of The Stellantis Adventure Series – a two-day celebration of gravel riding, mountain biking, trail running, country hospitality and everything that makes the Natal Midlands one of South Africa’s most loved destinations.
