Cape Town’s Best Winter 4x4 Trails

Why Winter? Why Now?

Off-roading around Cape Town doesn’t stop when the cold rolls in—in fact, it gets even better. Cooler temperatures, quieter trails, and dramatic landscapes make winter one of the best times to get out and explore. You’ll trade dust clouds for misty views, and crowds for calm.

But of course, winter demands more from your vehicle—and your gear.

Atlantis Dunes: The Softest Thrill You’ll Ever Tackle

Just 45 km from the city, Atlantis Dunes is an iconic off-road playground. It’s all sand, all the time—rolling dunes that look gentle but challenge even seasoned drivers. Lower your tire pressure, stay light on the throttle, and enjoy the endless fun.

Pro Tip: Cooler weather means your engine runs better—and you do too. Keep a Deltec 628B in your ride to make sure you’re not left stranded in the sand.

Two Oceans Trail: Sea Views and Rocky Bruises

Located near Cape Point, the Two Oceans 4×4 Trail is where coastal calm meets rocky climbs. The 18 km loop takes you through sand, boulders, and ocean air that feels like a holiday—until the terrain kicks back.

Don’t Forget: A Front Runner roof rack helps carry everything you need—recovery tracks, spade, extra fuel—without crowding your cabin.

Helderberg 4×4: Calm Looks, Tricky Terrain

This trail in Somerset West seduces you with beauty. Rolling hills, vineyards in the distance, maybe even a rainbow after a winter drizzle. But be warned: beneath the scenic surface lie muddy patches, tight turns, and rocky climbs that test your control and balance.

Gear Up: The Front Runner Slimline II Roof Rack is ideal for this trail—strong, lightweight, and ready to haul your kit up those mountain curves.

Matroosberg: Where the Snow Adds Drama

Think snow is just for alpine skiing? Matroosberg Trail near Ceres brings that mountain vibe to your 4×4. With steep climbs, icy ruts, and epic views, it’s a white-knuckle winter wonderland. But it’s not for beginners.

Camp Smart: With a Front Runner rooftop tent and LED light bar (6000 lumens!), you can turn any frosty pull-off into a warm, well-lit basecamp.

Winter Prep: Batteries First, Always

Your 4×4 needs to be tough—but also smart. Cold weather hits batteries hard, especially if they’re already a bit tired. That’s where Deltec’s May Winter Specials come in:

  • Deltec 628B – Only R1190 Incl. VAT
  • 12.8V Lithium Range – From R4990 Incl. VAT
  • Deltec 1250 High-Cycle Battery (R3190) – Perfect for dual battery setups and auxiliary systems.

Bonus: We offer full battery health checks in-store. Don’t risk it—get checked before heading out.

Adventure Is a Cold-Weather Game Too

Winter trails in Cape Town are quieter, tougher, and honestly—more rewarding. Whether you’re kicking up sand, slipping over muddy ruts, or carving tracks through snow, the right gear makes it all possible.

From Front Runner Adventure Gear to Deltec battery power, you’ve got everything you need to explore like a pro—even when the mercury drops.

Visit Deltec Batteries in Bellville or Tokai for Winter Prep, Fitments & Gear.
Because the road doesn’t wait—and neither should you.
