Prince George 100 Miler

The Prince George Monumental 100 Miler is one of South Africa’s most unique endurance cycling events — a monumental 167 km journey that crosses three distinct geographical regions, an iconic mountain range, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site in a single day. Widely regarded as one of the country's premier gravel challenges, it takes riders on an unforgettable adventure from the heart of the Great Karoo to the foothills of the Outeniqua Mountains.

Starting in the historic town of Prince Albert, riders immediately face the legendary Swartberg Pass, climbing from the northern slopes of the mountain range before descending into the vast landscapes of the Klein Karoo. From there, the route unfolds across rolling gravel roads, remote valleys, historic passes, and endless horizons before reaching the finish at Louvain Guest Farm in the Langkloof.

What makes the Prince George special is its constant change in scenery. Few races can take you from the stark beauty of the Great Karoo, across the Klein Karoo's rugged farmland, and into the greener mountain landscapes of the Garden Route region in a single ride. The route is challenging without being overly technical, making it equally appealing to dedicated gravel racers and mountain bikers looking for a true endurance adventure.

The race is about more than distance. It is a journey through some of South Africa’s most spectacular and remote terrain, where every climb reveals a new landscape and every kilometre tells a different story. Riders are rewarded with breathtaking views, iconic mountain passes, and the sense of accomplishment that comes from traversing an entire region under their own power.

The Prince George is not simply a 100-miler. It is a geographical expedition, a test of endurance, and a celebration of the vast, untamed beauty of the Western Cape. A race where the destination matters, but the journey is what you'll remember most.
