Thesen Island to Knysna East Heads

Knysna, Western Cape, South Africa

Hilly

Ride the last leg of the famous Karoo to Coast gravel race! With stunning views, overlooking the Outeniqua Mountains and Knysna Forest, and being deep in the Knysna Gouna forest, this ride will make you forget about the 16% ascents and your legs complaining. Being in the forest, with bright sunshine and blue skies above, is an absolute treat. Be quick on the descent back into Gouna river gorge to spot a baboon crossing the road. Finish at the Knysna Heads, where the Knysna Lagoon transitions to the Indian Ocean. This is Knysna at its best!
