Just outside Montagu (about 2 hours' drive from Cape Town), there are various places where you can go quad-biking. I went to one place, Tradouw Quads, which was billed as somewhere where families/beginners can try out quad-biking in a 2hr guided trail. But beware - the trail is actually very demanding, and goes up a mountain. It's very steep and out of our party of five, two of us came tumbling off the bikes. Thankfully we were not seriously hurt, but we want to warn others to be careful.
Tradouw Quads, near Barrydale, on R62
