Elgin’s ultimate test of endurance is back—are you ready to go?!
Whether you’re a solo warrior or part of a team, the Oak Valley 24 Hour Grand Prix brings the thrill of single-tracks, night racing, and nonstop action to one of the Western Cape’s most scenic venues. Set against the backdrop of the Hottentots Holland, Nuweberg, and Groenland mountains, this 24-hour challenge promises an unforgettable experience.
🏃♀️🚴 Choose Your Challenge
- MTB Route: 12km loops | 408m elevation
- Trail Run Route: 5km loops | 222m elevation
You can ride or run as many laps as you can in 24 hours. The Oak Valley Grand Prix kicks off at 12:00 noon on Saturday and runs straight through until 12:00 noon on Sunday. Any lap you start before the cut-off time counts—even if you finish it afterward.
You can take on the race solo, or join a 2-person, 4-person, or 5–8 person social team. Mixed teams must include at least one person of the opposite sex. Each team controls their own strategy, deciding who goes when and how often. Team handovers take place in a dedicated holding pen near the track.
