FatTracks: South Africa’s Original MTB Club

FatTracks is the first MTB club ever established in SA! Ever since 1989, we’ve been helping to grow and promote MTB in Nelson Mandela Bay.

From the pump track to the activity track at the Containers, to over 22km of trails in the Baakens Valley, we’re constantly working to make mountain biking accessible to everyone.

For nearly three decades we’ve built facilities, and developed spaces where riders of all ages, skills and abilities can practise their skills.

We believe that mountain biking is suitable for all ages, and is a great way to get out into nature, de-stress, and enjoy the spectacular outdoor areas that our city has to offer..
