Cape Town city centre to Kalk Bay Powered by Powerade

Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa

Easy

Shout your own “Hoopla” as you pedal your way off the Grand Parade and onto the streets of Cape Town. The first landmarks you’ll pass are the Castle and the Good Hope Centre before the day’s first climb takes you up Nelson Mandela Boulevard, past Groote Schuur Hospital and the University of Cape Town. Online as in real life Edinburgh Drive will be a challenge for those who haven’t trained enough, but from the summit the views over the vineyards of Constantia and the long Blue Route descent provide ample rewards. Leaving the highway, you then wind your way to the coast and through the picturesque suburbs of Muizenberg, St. James and Kalk Bay. Stage 1 ends on Main Road in Kalk Bay Park.
