Is this tour right for you?
Our Sundown National Park dirt bike tour is for riders ready to take their off-road experience into a two-day adventure. Expect rocky and technical sections, not just easy gravel roads.
Best for
Intermediate–advanced off-road riders who are comfortable with varied terrain and want a guided weekend away.
The terrain
This Scenic Rim dirt bike tour combines dirt roads and creek crossings with rocky climbs, Sundown tracks and remote border-country roads.
What you need
At least a learner motorcycle licence and the fitness for two full days of riding. A licence alone does not replace off-road experience.
“Alrock made everything simple, with a top-notch route through unreal scenery and varied terrain.”
