14-15 JUNE 2026
A multi-format endurance stage race unlike any other

Through the Heart
of the Green Kalahari

The Trans Augrabies is a thrilling multi-format endurance stage race, where you choose your challenge: Mountain Bike, Gravel Bike, or Trail Running. Each discipline features its own unique, demanding routes tailored to push your limits across the untamed landscapes of the Augrabies Falls National Park and surrounding areas.

Covering intense terrain and variable desert conditions over two gripping days, participants will conquer the dramatic contrasts of this vast, desolate wilderness, interrupted only by the vibrant green oasis of the mighty Gariep (Orange) River valley.

Discover a region celebrated for its breathtaking beauty and authentic Northern Cape spirit, long recognised as one of the world's top adventure destinations.

We invite mountain bikers, gravel riders, and trail runners to join this unforgettable desert showdown. E-bikes are welcome to participate but will not be eligible for prizes.

Our pioneering Handicap Timekeeping System - the first of its kind in South Africa - levels the playing field using a smart formula that gives veterans and female athletes a fair shot at the Overall Prizes, letting experience and grit shine alongside raw speed.

This is no easy feat, but the rewards are immense: breathtaking scenery, shared adventure under vast skies, and that pure, lekker Kalahari vibe.

This is more than a race - This is Trans Augrabies.
Ready to answer the desert's call? Enter now for the adventure of a lifetime.
