Rallye Raid

Join us for the Rallye Raid Hogsback, taking place from March 6-9 at the Arminel Hotel in Hogsback, Eastern Cape. This year’s event features three new route options and is designed for both seasoned racers and enthusiastic amateurs, fostering camaraderie among participants. Celebrating its eighth year, the off-road adventure will host 200 bikers trekking through scenic, untouched indigenous forests. Enjoy daily lunches, live music from Jono in the evenings, and exciting giveaways throughout the event. With routes suitable for all skill levels and welcoming pillion passengers, it promises to be a memorable experience for everyone.

The 2025 Rallye Raid remains in the picturesque mountains of Hogsback for the 8th year and counting!  The beautiful Arminel Hotel will once again be the headquarters for 200 Adventure bikers.

Mike has some great plans for scenic routes through the lush Amatola forests. Hogsback, and its immediate surroundings of Katberg, Cathcart, Stutterheim, Thomas River, all with their own signature tracks, make this Adventure Bike heaven! 

 Entry into the Arminel Hotel is based on the order of entry and the overflow will go into nearby hotels, arranged by our Red Cherry Events logistics team. Breakfast is served at your respective hotel and lunch is provided en route. We will all end a great day on the bike with supper in the “Chill Zone”. Look forward to great grub, live music, vibey bartenders (with great specials) & lucky draws each evening.
