617km | 16500m Climbing
The 2024 Absa Cape Epic. The twentieth edition. And a route filled with untamed challenges. One that features 16 500 metres of climbing. Packed into 617 kilometres of racing. At a rate of 27 metres of elevation gain per kilometre. From the Prologue, in Lourensford, to the Grand Finale, in Stellenbosch, every stage is designed to test teams to the limit. Questioning if they are prepared for the opportunities ahead. If they can brave the untamed. And conquer as one.
This is the 2024 Absa Cape Epic route, presented by Toyota. Are you tough enough?
