Rhebokskloof Wine Estate, situated on the Northern slopes of Paarl Mountain offers some of the most scenic views in the Western Cape. The farm launched dedicated single track routes in the vineyards and slopes on either side of the farm in February 2014, constructed by Hans Degenaar and local trail building team. Many local riders from Paarl, Wellington and Franschhoek already know what Paarl Mountain can offer.
Rhebokskloof offers the most picturesque route with sweeping views over Noord – Agter Paarl. Rhebokskloof and Wines2Whales director, Johan Kriegler, have teamed up and developed a fantastic route of approximately 15 kilometres on the farm, of which about 12 kilometres is an exhilarating single track. The eastern slope at the back of the farm has approximately 70 landscaped terraces within this single track- downhill, with many switchbacks which offer superb riding. Riders seeking longer distances can do a 20 kilometre loop into the adjacent Paarl Mountain reserve, resulting in a 35 kilometre track in total. The route complements the existing trails in Welvanpas and Paarl Mountain Reserve.

The routes are clearly marked, and riders can also enjoy a sumptuous breakfast or lunch at Rhebokskloof’s famous restaurant. The restaurant caters for the whole family with lush lawns, children’s play area and a sprawling terrace. On cold and rainy days the inside of the restaurant offers two fireplaces and a cosy lounge area where guests can indulge in some glorious winter meals. The latest addition to the restaurant is the design corner where local interior designer Salome Knijnenburg’s décor items can be seen and purchased.
