Event information
Flying Feet offers guided town tours, including historical and art-focused routes, and the option to rent a unique hand-painted bicycle to explore Montagu independently. Each bike, crafted in Dutch single-speed style, showcases artwork by local artists, making every ride a celebration of creativity and community. The simplicity of these bikes, with backpedal brakes, provides a relaxed, nostalgic way to take in Montagu’s charm.
Cycling with Flying Feet offers an immersive way to experience Montagu, from feeling the Karoo breeze to hearing the town’s vibrant sounds and enjoying leisurely stops to interact with the community. Experience the Karoo breeze, the aroma of braai fires, and the lively sounds of Montagu in an open, unfiltered environment. Routes allow for leisurely stops to chat with locals, enjoy picnics, or marvel at the Langeberge mountains’ geological wonders. For those wanting an extra boost, e-bikes are available, perfect for longer town explorations but not suited for gravel roads.
Mountain bike rentals cater to adventurers looking for Montagu’s gravel roads and single-track trails, which range from easy to challenging. Flying Feet provides maps and route suggestions to ensure a tailored experience for every rider. Helmets are included with all rentals, ensuring safety as you immerse yourself in Montagu’s lifestyle and heritage.
For visitors interested in more structured adventures, Flying Feet also offers hiking experiences, including the challenging Bloupunt Hiking Trail and the rewarding Cogmanskloof Trail. Both routes showcase breathtaking views and diverse flora, with options to shorten the routes for a more accessible experience.
For a multi-day experience, the Montagu Magic package combines luxury accommodation, guided hikes, wine tasting, and local culinary delights. However, the heart of Flying Feet’s charm lies in its love for cycling, art, and the Karoo lifestyle, inviting everyone to explore Montagu at their own pace.
