Route Profile 


Route Description


Riders from the early years of the PPS Panorama Tour will remember parts of this Stage. You leave Casterbridge and head towards Hazyview. At three kilometers, is the first of many sharp climbs. This characterises this stage. There is a wide shoulder throughout and spectacular scenery to distract you from your tired legs.

There is a Hotspot for Men, Women, Grand Master and Mixed categories at 24km. At 28km, turn left onto the Kiepersol Rd and follow it around as it curves to the right. The PPS Water point is at 34km. This loop returns you to the R40 where you turn right and make your way back to White River. 

Rest those legs for the last effort of the time trial and we'll see you at prize giving, race briefing and the rider dinner.
